Experiencias Positivas, led by Elena Cosmani, organizes scientific and educational tourism activities, specializing in astro-tourism and environmental education. Its programs combine science, culture, and nature with a creative and participatory approach that aims to help the public learn about the Doñana region and its night sky.
Our commitment to the conservation of Doñana’s natural and cultural heritage is unwavering, as demonstrated by our adherence to the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism and the Soy Ecoturista initiative. Among the many sustainability initiatives and efforts to foster ties with the Doñana Natural Park that we carry out, we would like to highlight the following:
- We participate in international events promoting astronomy, such as the International Observe the Moon Night (IOMN), successfully placing Doñana on NASA’s map.
- We actively collaborate with the Ándalus Association on projects to protect the natural and cultural heritage of the Doñana area and its surrounding region. This collaboration ties into the fields of astronomy and landscape interpretation, creating synergies between science, art, and conservation.
- We frequently collaborate with the La Puebla del Río City Council, offering guided tours and interpretive activities at the Monumental Nativity Scene and the local tower, combining astronomy, art, and heritage.
