    Description
    Description
    Esta iniciativa que
    tendr una duracin de 3 aos (2017-2019), tiene como meta facilitar el
    consenso e implementacin de medidas de adaptacin al CC para mejorar
    la resiliencia de actividades productivas crticas para su subsistencia. Se
    fortalecern nuevas y existentes cadenas de valor en pesca y turismo,
    aumentando el nmero de beneficiarios, creando capacidades locales,
    incorporando nuevas alternativas de productos/servicios responsables, mejorando el aprovechamiento del recurso como preparacin ante una
    posible escasez debido a los cambios en el ocano.
    Para alcanzar estas metas, se analizar el riesgo de impactos por el
    cambio climtico en el Golfo de Montijo para la validacin y priorizacin de
    medidas especficas de adaptacin de actividades productivas de
    pescadores artesanales y MIPYMES tursticas vulnerables, con lo cual a
    travs de un trabajo participativo con los beneficiarios, se contribuir a
    fortalecer la resiliencia de estas actividades de enfoque, en funcin de las
    caractersticas de amenaza y vulnerabilidad que les genera riesgo frente
    al CC.
    Dentro de los principales logros esperados de esta iniciativa, se procurar
    que al menos 120 familias, lderes de actividades de pesca artesanal y
    turismo, tengan beneficios directos de las medidas de adaptacin,
    buscando contribuir a mantener la capacidad productiva promedio y dar
    sostenibilidad en las tasas de empleo local que manejan. As mismo se
    espera impactar a ms de 1300 beneficiarios indirectos generando
    posibilidades de acceder a herramientas de gestin de conocimiento sobre
    el Cambio Climtico en su regin, lo que les permitir mejores tomas de
    decisin a la hora de desarrollar nuevas iniciativas u obras de desarrollo
    en su comunidad, lo cual puede ser un modelo replicable para todo el
    pas.
