Community Forestry in the NY Times
A couple of months ago we did a post on a Mexican indigenous community, the model of well-managed community forestry and business in Latin America.
The New York Times did a profile on the same community the other day. The long term vision of Planting Empowerment is to replicate this model not only in Panama, but throughout the rest of Latin America.
We are making progress towards this goal, as we have seen our indigenous community partner of Arimae take increasing ownership of the UNDP-GEF SGP funded project.
