Achieving Fair and Effective Marine Protected and Conserved Areas in Belize Through the IUCN Green List Standard: Phase 2 2025

Abstract

The project, "Achieving Fair and Effective Marine Protected and Conserved Areas in Belize through the IUCN Green List Standard," conducted in collaboration with various stakeholders, including the Ministry of Blue Economy and Marine Conservation (previously Ministry of Blue Economy and Civil Aviation) and Belize Fisheries Department, emphasises the strategic incorporation of Belize's MPAs into the Green List pathway by 2027.

The Phase 2 report builds on the work completed in Phase I by focussing on the five MPAs chosen for fast tracking towards achieving IUCN Green List status. Through Phase II, a second in-person workshop was completed and a roadmap was developed to further guide progress.
