As climate change impacts Guatemala with changing variability in intensity and frequency of precipitation patterns, the primary threats are floods and landslides. The reintroduction of cocoa production can address both economic and environmental problems simultaneously.
The project “Productive Landscape Resilient to Climate Change and Strengthened Socioeconomic Networks in Guatemala” is supporting groups of organized women producing cacao to improve the quality and profitability of artisanal chocolate, promoting the recovery of cocoa plantations.
