Project Preparation: the Protection of Pollinating Insects and Pollination Ecosystems in Latin America - GCP/RLA/226/GER 2023

In the Latin America region, little information is available on the importance of pollinators and pollinator conservation strategies, resulting in poor policies and regulation. This led to a need to develop a regional proposal for the protection and monitoring of their populations, to be submitted to the International Climate Initiative of the German Ministry of the Environment. Its adoption and implementation will help to preserve pollinators and increase resilience to the consequences of climate change in the region.
