Quantitative Data:<\/b> During 2024, more than 500 people have been direct beneficiaries of the Fund’s activities. More than 40 training processes have been carried out, including workshops, courses, and diplomas, aimed at strengthening capacities in key areas such as environmental conservation, professionalization of the community tourism sector, and responsible fishing. These actions have had a concrete impact on at least 12 communities, 6 municipalities, and more than 25 local initiatives.<\/p>

Regarding local economic development, the Fund has provided technical accompaniment and support to 15 small and micro community enterprises dedicated to ecotourism and fishing. These efforts seek to strengthen sustainable production models that generate income without risking the ecosystems.<\/p>

Thanks to the trust of national and international allies, more than 7 million Mexican pesos have been managed in 2024 in funds allocated to community projects. This financing has made it possible not only to strengthen human capacities but also to implement sustainable land management practices.<\/p>

Currently, more than 245 hectares are under conservation practices and responsible use of natural resources. Among them, 105 hectares are dedicated to sustainable agriculture, such as community coffee production. 140 hectares are under forest management and ecological restoration, including: 3 hectares of reforested mangrove, 122 hectares under community forest conservation and management, and 15 hectares reforested with native species of low deciduous forest.<\/p>
