Protecting coastal habitats in Belize through ambitious climate commitments

About this program

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF), in collaboration with the Belize Government and other partners, is offering a grant to strengthen protections for Belize's coastal ecosystems through scientific research and climate policy integration. The project focuses on assessing the climate value of mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs, using high-resolution mapping and field research to estimate carbon stocks and their role in climate change mitigation. Eligibility and application details are not specified, but the initiative emphasizes stakeholder engagement and capacity-building for monitoring commitments under Belize's Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the Paris Climate Agreement.
