Support the development and implementation of REDD+ Strategy. Under this TC, it is proposed to support Belize in completing pending activities in its Strategy REDD+ to access climate financing to improve the management of the agroforestry landscape in about 5,000 Ha. This financing will also make it possible to complement and scaling up interventions at the level of the territories supported with the BL-L1041 loan, through direct support to some 500 producers to implement sustainable and climate-resilient technologies and practices, especially in sustainable management of the agroforestry landscape. These activities are key to economic recovery and are strategic to create jobs and improve social and economic conditions in the rural areas. This operation is aligned with the MAG pillars: Increased access to good practices related to land use planning sensitive to climate change and gender equality for public and private sectors; Increased capacity of women and men farmers to implement sustainable agricultural practices including climate-smart agriculture; and Improved sustainable and gender-responsive natural resource management by targeted governments and farmers in LAC.
