Connecting Watershed Health with Sustainable Livestock and Agroforestry Production (CONECTA)

In 2024, the Connecting Watershed Health with Sustainable Livestock and Agroforestry Production (CONECTA, in Spanish) project strengthened women’s leadership and knowledge exchange through assemblies focused on livestock and conservation in Chihuahua, nursery producers in Jalisco, and women producers from diverse value chains in Chiapas. Additionally, 843 producers (316 women and 527 men) adopted best sustainable practices for management and restoration on over 12,000 hectares. Under the technical leadership of the National Institute of Climate Change (INECC, acronym in Spanish), CONECTA developed three Action Plans for Integrated Watershed Management (PAMIC, acronym in Spanish) in Río La Antigua (Veracruz), Vallarta (Jalisco), and Istmo-Costa (Chiapas), and supported sustainable production practices in 30 producer groups through the involvement of eight Local Technical Assistance Providers (PLATs, acronym in Spanish).
