MIGRATORY SHOREBIRD CONSERVATION IN THE

The project long-term goal is to contribute to the protection of migratory shorebird habitat in the Pacific Coast of Guatemala.

The project will support integrated efforts to generate scientific information regarding migratory shorebirds in the Pacific Coast, the characterization of key sites for migratory shorebirds and the generation of best practices for shrimp and salt production to contribute to shorebird protection.

This project will build on the successful results from the Wildlife Conservation Society project, the ongoing efforts to develop best practices and the ongoing conservation and land use planning processes to ensure that partners contribute to shorebird protection in the long term.

FUNDAECO will replicate the successful experience in landscape planning and integration of local stakeholders to advance in bird protection and sustainable community development in Caribbean Guatemala.
