Venezuela's National Institute of Parks, the non-governmental organization Vitalis, and other local and international groups propose creating a system to monitor and assess the natural wealth of the Canaima National Park, in the Venezuelan south. The plan is sponsored by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization), the United Nations Foundation, and the World Conservation Union.

The purpose is to provide effective management and conservation of the three-million-hectare park. The plan is also to train technicians in the methodologies for follow-up an evaluation in order to carry out the same efforts in other Venezuelan parks.
