Objectives
To enhance biodiversity conservation of protected areas in Guatemala and mitigate the threats to key ecosystems and species within and contribute to ensuring the delivery of ecosystem services on which surrounding communities depend.
The project(s) will build local capacity to improve management and environmental governance throughout Guatemala’s SIGAP and implement high-priority interventions at the local level in three priority land and seascapes.
Development Challenge
Guatemalan protected areas are under pressure from several threats and suffer from chronic underfunding, insufficient human resources for management and protection, and limited institutional capacity. While Guatemala has many environmental laws and policies, they can be difficult to comply with and institutional limitations inhibit successful conservation outcomes. Roles and responsibilities for planning and monitoring are dispersed among various government agencies, which can complicate management and enforcement of laws, regulations, and management plans.
