SERFOR (Servicio Nacional Forestal y de Fauna Silvestre), the National Forestry and Wildlife Authority whose main function is to promote the sustainable management of Peru's wild flora and fauna, formulated, through the "Protection of Flora and Wildlife Species" program, two National Conservation Plans (NCPs): primates and orchids, and supported the dissemination and training of two other NCPs: the Andean bear and the Andean tapir. 

"The National Conservation Plans are management instruments of national scope that include the diagnosis of the species that are the object of the plan at the biological, socioeconomic, and environmental levels." (SERFOR, 2021)

The objectives of the NCPs are to conserve and recover populations and habitats of threatened species, increase knowledge about species management, strengthen measures to control and prevent illegal extraction, and motivate participatory governance and management for species conservation. 

The NCPs detail the main threats facing the species, the status of their population and habitat, the objectives of the plan, the lines of action, the budget, the strategies for implementing the plan, and the actions for monitoring the plan.  

These management tools are of utmost importance, as they are action-oriented. In addition, they allow for the collaboration and participation of different institutions, including universities, institutes, NGOs, civil society organizations, etc., that are committed to the goals of the NCPs.
