Stärkung des Rechts auf Nahrung und einer nachhaltigen Landverwaltung

Objectives

Das Projekt leistet einen unverzichtbaren Beitrag zur Ernährungssicherung im Bereich des Rechts auf Zugang zu Land. Von Landgrabbing betroffene Gemeinden in der Wahrnehmung ihrer Rechte zu stärken und gleichzeitig mit verschiedenen Entscheidungsebenen wie der Distriktverwaltung, aber auch Ministerien in Dialog zu treten, ist ein guter Ansatz, um der Landnahme durch mächtige Konzerne entgegenzuwirken. Somit kann der Eskalation von Landkonflikten vorgebeugt werden.

General

Sicherung der Landrechte und Unterstützung einer selbstbestimmten nachhaltigen Entwicklung indigener Völker in der Zielregion

Objectives

Viele in der brasilianischen Verfassung vorgesehene Rechte, wie der Schutz indigener Gebiete und das Recht auf eine kulturangepasste Entwicklung, werden vom Staat nur unzureichend umgesetzt. Ziel ist die politische und organisatorische Stärkung der indigenen Völker, so dass sie sich erfolgreich für die Verwirklichung ihrer territorialen Rechte und die Garantie ihrer körperlichen Unversehrtheit einsetzen und gemäß ihrer Traditionen leben und wirtschaften können. Zentrale Maßnahmen sind Fortbildungen und Austauschtreffen vor Ort, juristische Begleitung und Lobbyarbeit auf politischer Ebene.

Target Groups

43. The socioeconomic benefits to be delivered by the project are multiple. Benefits include enhancing the capacity of staff from public institutions (e.g., MiAmbiente+), ICF, SAG, and DICTA) to effectively manage PAs, implement sustainable production and diversification; and control and surveillance in prioritized biological corridors and PAs. At the local level, municipalities, PA co-managers, and palm oil producers and cattle ranchers (including women) will also benefit from capacity development. The project will also strengthen the governance framework to sustainably manage production landscapes, including biological corridors. This will include an enhanced land tenure interinstitutional accreditation system to help solve land tenure conflicts within an outside PAs, strengthening regional and local platforms for palm oil and cattle ranching, and establishing a participatory CONACOBIH regional roundtable for biological corridors, all of which will empower local stakeholders in decision-making processes. Other benefits include making available financial products (credit lines, green bonds, guarantee funds, impact investment funds, payments by results, etc.) with necessary institutional capacity in place for the financing of biodiversity-friendly production practices, including agroforestry systems, community-based forestry, and sustainable palm oil and livestock production, which will benefit 6,000 small and medium producers of palm oil (2,000), beef/dairy (2,000) and basic grains (maize and beans) (2,000) in key conservation areas in the prioritized biological corridors. Similarly, 500 small and medium farms will be supported to implement intensive silvopastoral and basic grains systems with production diversification through agroforestry systems. In addition 1,000 conservation and good production practices agreements will be signed with the producers of palm oil and beef/dairy products that will allow the adopt LMTs that contribute to biodiversity conservation while generating economic benefits through agroforestry, prioritizing producers impacted by COVID-19. At least 15 community-based organizations including indigenous peoples (Garífuna and Tolupanes) and women's groups, will be supported with low-value grants to implement actions that will contribute to biodiversity conservation and the recovery of goods and ecosystem services in the prioritized biological corridors including degraded lands, also prioritizing stakeholders impacted by COVID-19. The project will supportRSPO palm oil certification standard for independent smallholdersthat will be directly primarily to small and medium producers of palm oil making certification more affordable and adding value to their product. In total, the project will directly benefit 26,400 people (women: 9,700; men; 14,700; and indigenous peoples: 2,000, 50% men and 50% women). 44. Other project benefits include improved water supply for producers and other stakeholders through the implementation of PES schemes for water services in at least two PAs. Finally, through knowledge management activities and products, the project will benefit multiple stakeholders nationally by increasing awareness about PA management, mainstreaming biodiversity in production landscapes, SLM, and gender aspects, among other topics; this will serve as a mechanism for replication and scaling-up of successful experiences in other production landscapes and biological corridors in the country.
