UK project will improve livelihoods and climate resilience of communities in Alta Verapaz and the dry corridor
A new UK-funded project will improve the livelihoods and climate resilience of communities in Alta Verapaz and the dry corridor in Guatemala.
The £10 million project, which is being implemented by a consortium of NGOs led by CARE International, will provide training and support to farmers to help them adopt more sustainable agricultural practices, improve their access to markets, and build their resilience to climate change.
The project will also work with local communities to improve access to water and sanitation, and to develop sustainable land management practices.
The UK is committed to supporting Guatemala in its efforts to reduce poverty and improve the lives of its citizens. This project is part of a wider UK programme of support to Guatemala, which includes funding for education, health, and security.
The UK is also a major contributor to the Green Climate Fund, which is helping developing countries to adapt to climate change and reduce their emissions.
The project will be implemented in the following municipalities:
- Alta Verapaz: San Pedro Carchá, San Juan Chamelco, Lanquín, and Cahabón
- Dry corridor: Chiquimula, Jalapa, and Zacapa
The project will benefit over 10,000 families in these municipalities.
The project will have the following objectives:
- To improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers in Alta Verapaz and the dry corridor
- To increase the resilience of communities to climate change
- To improve access to water and sanitation
- To promote sustainable land management practices
The project will be implemented over a period of five years.
