Develop legal protection of the mangroves along the southern portion of Colombia’s Pacific coast, and the local community-based support to manage these important areas into the future. The project directly links to CEPF’s investments on the Ecuadorian coast supporting the improved protection of the Cayapas-Mataje Ecological Reserve, thus helping to create a bi-national corridor of coastal mangrove forests.

Strategic Direction: 1 Establish/strengthen local and regional mechanisms to foster corridor-level conservation
