Atlantic Mesoamerican Biological Corridor Project

As part of the Meso-American Biological Corridor initiative, this project would conserve the Panamanian section of the Corridor. It will include:1) biodiversity assessments, monitoring, land-use planning and information disemination for the Corridor; 2) capacity-building for governmental, NGO and indigenous groups in protected area and biological corridor management; 3) support to field activities in protected areas (infrastructure and equipment for protected area management, protected area demarcation and management plans, community/NGO involvement, and research and visitor facilities); and 4) support to field activities in indigenous lands (community participation in corridor management, possibly assistance in land tenure) and corridor areas (sustainable economic activities, partnerships with local communities and private economic agents).
