Shared Agenda to Strengthen Social and Environmental Governance in eastern Guatemala's "DryeCorridor"
The Shared Agenda to Strengthen Socio-Environmental Governance in the ?Dry Corridor? of eastern Guatemala was elaborated through a participatory process within the framework of the Joint Program "Strengthening Environmental Governance in the face of Climate Risk in Guatemala". The objective of this multisectorial dialogue, which took place within a period of 4 months, was to improve the management of natural resources in the region. 14 workshops were held in the six departments of the so-called Dry Corridor, in which representatives of local government, the private sector and civil society participated. In them, social and environmental governance plans were collected, validated and discussed, proposals were agreed to define the legal and political framework for the management of natural resources, and, in turn, mechanisms to strengthen the institutions in charge.
