Forest Governance

The evaluation report outlines the efforts of the Climate Change and Resilience Program, which focuses on enhancing the capacities of vulnerable populations to manage extreme climate events and other natural disasters. One significant project aims to conserve and restore forest landscapes in the municipalities of La Reforma, El Quetzal, and Colomba Costa Cuca. This initiative seeks to build on previous conservation efforts by strengthening local governance through the establishment of Environmental Management Units. Key activities include the formulation of municipal environmental policies and the reactivation of stakeholder dialogue to ensure community participation. Additionally, the project supports community-level training for volunteer promoters and the implementation of biocultural productive projects that diversify agroforestry systems. Running from December 1, 2022, to May 31, 2024, the project covers 33 communities and is funded by the Tropical Forest Conservation Fund (FCA).
