In a fresh and innovative format, Bancamiga started this year an audiovisual series that allowed to spread simple stories of great impact in the communities and in the country. The protagonists have in common their fight for a better Venezuela. This Tuesday the stories of a group of Venezuelans reached a new level, with the baptism of the book Historias Repetibles, the first literary work of the Bancamiga Editorial Fund.

The Editorial Fund is a new initiative of the Bancamiga Social Responsibility Department, with the aim of contributing to the preservation and dissemination of cultural heritage, promoting reading and access to knowledge, and fostering collaboration between institutions, researchers, intellectuals and writers of different currents.

Through 12 stories, Historias Repetibles pays tribute to tradition and to those people who have dedicated their lives to natural conservation projects and to preserving culture. Also to those who inspire with their perseverance and boundless passion, whose achievements are passed on from generation to generation, and to those who are able to get up after a tragic life experience.

With each of the stories, readers will learn about the efforts of their protagonists to achieve their dreams. They will learn that in Caracas there are people who are in charge of prolonging the life of toys, that in Mérida an agronomist has been promoting a project for the registration and preservation of mucuchí dogs for 20 years, or that in Nueva Esparta 27 women are in charge of collecting oysters from the mangroves of La Restinga.

These are stories that, despite having a very different context and development, have as protagonists mothers and fathers, workers and housewives who strive from their trenches for the common good. This is what Lilian Gluck and her team of volunteers do, who have managed to recover and recycle 60,000 stuffed animals, toys, educational games and dolls; Edgar Albarrán, at almost 3,000 meters above sea level in the state of Mérida, by creating Mucuchilandia with the aim of rescuing the Mucuchí race, and Érika Fernández and her oyster farmers, heirs to the art of collecting and cultivating the mangrove oyster, who fight on Margarita Island to transmit this tradition to the new generations. And there are many other stories like these.

During the event held at the PB of Cubo Negro, the President of the Board of Directors of Bancamiga Banco Universal, José Simón Elarba, expressed that the quality of the publications and their contribution to the development of the country will allow the Editorial Fund to become “a national and international reference; in addition to promoting the creation of spaces for participation by renowned authors, allies and interest groups for the organization.”

For the first half of next year, the Fund plans to publish the Manual for entrepreneurs; Answers to 10 key questions for entrepreneurship in Venezuela, a project in which experts participate in order to support those who have business initiatives in the country.

Bancamiga: A tribute to every Venezuelan

In the 184 pages of Repeatable Stories, Venezuelans will get to know Belkis García in A New Dimension of Triumph; Lieska Mofi in Guardians of a Plant Temple; Susanne Zielke and Astrid Rudman in The Voice of Clay; Clemente Balladares in Gardeners of the Sea and Julio Carrillo in Joy between Two Worlds.

They will also meet the multi-faceted Petare in the voice of César Fernández, Alexis Montesino and Doris Pereira; Haidy Collin in Venezuela German is spoken; Érika Fernández in Margariteñas, harvesting mangroves; Lilian Gluck and the sixty thousand illusions; Greisly Avendaño and the new realities of wood; Edgar Albarrán in Mucuchíes: Preserving canine pride in Venezuela; and Juan Carlos Rodríguez and his wife Haydeé Rodríguez in Chuwie: The sloth that awakened consciences.

“With this first publication we are demonstrating our work as a socially responsible company, which contributes strongly to the traditional and cultural memory of the country. Historias Repetibles is a tribute to each Venezuelan fighter, the protagonist of each of the stories told here and which represent the thousands of inhabitants of this blessed land of natural and human wealth,” Bancamiga highlights on page 5 of this work filled with photographs by Gustavo Alemán Troconiz and texts by Nahir Márquez.

With this editorial initiative, Bancamiga once again reaffirms its commitment to carry out programs and projects capable of positively transforming society and building a better Venezuela.

The preservation of the Paria Peninsula National Park and the protected species of sea turtles that spawn in the eastern end of the Sucre state now count on Bancamiga, which has extended its support to the conservation efforts carried out by organizations such as Provita, together with the Ministry of Popular Power for Ecosocialism (Minec) and Inparques.

“Bancamiga is collaborating to support the park rangers, giving a contribution that is used to continue patrolling and supervising the area (the park). They go through the mountains, the town of Macuro and the nesting beaches, and they warn us of the illegal acts to control, to report, to have an idea of ​​how the environment is and to protect the extraordinary ecosystem”, explained Clemente Balladares, coordinator of the Program of Conservation at Minec and Associate Researcher at Provita.

Since 2021, the Paria Peninsula National Park has been protected through the Global Park Defense (GPD) system, a Global Conservation technology designed to combat logging and poaching of wildlife.

Sucre’s beaches, where endangered species such as the hawksbill turtle, the green turtle and the cardón turtle take refuge, are flanked by an exuberant mountain massif, whose flora and fauna are similar to those of the Venezuelan Guayana. The mountain rises from the sea, reaching its maximum altitude at 1,371 meters above sea level.

Park rangers dedicated to Paria monitor 892 square kilometers with the software on their phones, which makes it easy for them to georeference tours, report finds and illegal acts, and act if necessary, disarming traps to capture species.

Predation must be avoided

According to Balladares, the conservation work carried out in the area for two decades has reduced the number of looted nests of sea turtles to 5 %. To contribute to this work, he urged the inhabitants and visitors of the Sucre state not to consume turtle eggs and to contact competent organizations when they find a spawning, so that they send a specialist to attend to the nest. Also, people should not touch the eggs for any reason.

“You have to avoid predation. If predation is avoided, the fish flourish, and if the fish flourish, that has benefits for the ecosystem. The fish we eat depends on sea turtles. It’s amazing!” he concluded.

The researcher estimates that, thanks to conservation initiatives, in the far east of the country there are an average of 150 hawksbill nests each year, to which are added those of other species of these reptiles. “It is a good number. This is what we are protecting.”

Bancamiga Banco Universal, as a socially responsible company and committed to sustainable development, supports proposals that positively impact the environment and contribute to environmental sustainability, indicates a statement from the innovative, safe and supportive financial institution.
