The Tropical Andes region
The Tropical Andes region is the area of the Andean Mountain range from their northernmost point at 11°N in Colombia until 23°S on the southern border of Bolivia (Cuesta, 2012). This definition is based on national borders since the assessment focuses on policy instruments. However, the tropical mountain environment stretches until 27°S in the north-east of Argentina (Ibid.). The Tropical Andes pass through five countries: Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia.
