Abstract

The performance of extractive practices did not cease during the Covid-19 pandemic and therefore different mechanisms and dynamics were reformulated that were contradictory to the dominant development model. The emergence of a new conflict for the future of nature and its values was replicated in the field of environmental action. These demands were determined by
the restrictions of obligatory isolation, followed by the current social distancing. In Hudson (Berazategui's party), the different social actors who demanded the care of the wetland and the riverside forest reinvented themselves in search of new alternatives and strategies of struggle to carry out their demands, demanding the declaration of the zone as a natural reserve.
