About
Overview:The JP was implemented through the leadership of the Ministry of Environment (MoEnv) with the support of six UN agencies who brought their technical and thematic expertise: UN-Women, UN-Habitat, UNESCO, FAO, WTO and UNDP. The JP focused its efforts at the legal, political and local levels. Firstly, the Programme clarified the legal and institutional frameword for the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve (YBR), and for three other biosphere reserves of the country. This work has been boosted by official recognition of the Management Committee (CGRBY) and by the formation of the National Network of Biosphere Reserves. The YBR is headed by the CGRBY that include YBR community organizations. A major achievement of the JP was that after more than 10 years of existence, the CGRBY was legally recognized as a governance and consultative body. It includes 120 civil society organizations, including community-based organizations, NGOs, Universities, as well as representatives of Decentralized Local Government and of the central government. The CGRBY has four thematic tables (sustainable livelihoods, physical and territorial planning, Tourism, Control and Oversight) whose function is to collect the point of view of the different actors and join efforts to create synergies, where possible. The recognition on the need to have all the different ethnic groups participate as key actors of the conservation and management of the YBR has contributed to improving the self-esteem of the indigenous populations, while increasing their autonomy and their empowerment. In addition, the program generated capacities for the formulation and implementation of public policy through the participation and dialogue with civil society organizations, which translated in a management and coordination model for other biosphere reserves in the country.
