Resilience and Ancestry: Community Adaptation in the Honduran Trifinio Biosphere

The project is designed to address crucial challenges impacting the Maya Chorti communities in the Trifinio region, comprising the municipalities of Copán Ruinas, Santa Rita, El Paraíso, and San Antonio. These areas are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, which manifest through extreme climatic variations, predominantly affecting agricultural activities and exacerbating environmental degradation. The proposed intervention seeks to strengthen climate resilience and improve the adaptive capacity of communities through an integrated and sustainable
approach, providing access to financing mechanisms through microfinance institutions and community funds.
