Hydrological Dialogue Panel of Baja Verapaz
The Hydrological Dialogue Panel of Baja Verapaz was created with the goal of designing and implementing a mechanism for the collaborative management of the department's natural resources, emphasizing its sustainable development, preventing its deterioration, and resolving conflicts among different sectors of civil society. Such conflicts emerged in 2008 due to water scarcity and the degradation of other natural resources. Representatives of the government, municipalities, civil society and the private sector participated in this table.
