In a pioneering initiative, Colegio Antillanca, in collaboration with the Osorno Citizen Environmental Network, has implemented an innovative QR code system in Chuyaca Park, transforming the Siempre Verde Urban Forest into an outdoor educational classroom.

The inauguration ceremony, attended by various educational institutions and environmental organizations, marks a milestone in integrating technology with the conservation and study of local natural heritage.

The project, a result of the joint effort and fieldwork by Colegio Antillanca, allows park visitors to access detailed information about native tree species using their mobile devices. By scanning the QR codes placed throughout the environment, a window of scientific knowledge opens, enriching the user experience and fostering appreciation for biodiversity.

During the event, it was emphasized that implementing this technology not only enhances the park as a place for leisure and recreation but also sets an important precedent for scientific education in public spaces. The Siempre Verde Urban Forest, located within Chuyaca Park, now serves as an interactive educational platform, offering students and visitors a dynamic way to learn about the environment.

The leadership of the Citizen Environmental Network expressed enthusiasm for this advancement, noting that it represents a significant achievement in the ongoing effort by educational institutions to promote environmental awareness and the dissemination of botanical knowledge. This QR code system is an example of how technology can be an ally in environmental education and the preservation of urban green spaces.

With the implementation of this technological tool, Chuyaca Park positions itself as a leader in environmental education and innovation, offering the Osorno community and its visitors a unique and accessible way to connect with nature and learn about the importance of protecting our natural environment.
