U.S. Climate Finance: Guatemala

By U.S. Department of State

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is investing $3.2 million in the Climate, Nature and Communities program to build resilience to climate change impacts and promote low emission development to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from land-use change. The program will help conserve biodiversity, improve natural resource management, and reduce risks from climate related natural disasters. The program will also help communities address acute natural resource protection issues such as illegal logging, wildfires, and the impact of narco-trafficking in biologically important areas in order to improve sustainable land use and reduce land use-related greenhouse gas emissions. The program also will collaborate with the government of Guatemala on the natural resource and biodiversity aspects of its low emission development strategy (LEDS).
