On #WorldEnvironmentDay, we're excited to highlight Carlos Duarte's work in San José Poaquil, Guatemala. 🇬🇹🌲 Through the #OpenCities Projects, we're harnessing geospatial data & community engagement to enable indigenous forest management & climate adaptation.

Strengthening Indigenous Forest Management with Open Mapping in Guatemala

Guatemala is considered the fifth biodiversity hotspot in the world, and their forests are not only a source of diverse habitat and support livelihoods, but are crucial for climate change adaptation and mitigation. Over the years, the biodiversity and the livelihoods have been impacted by the increasing environmental pressures.

I remain beyond amazed that new.columbus.gov, built using #Granicus' #OpenCities CMS, doesn't have #RSS feeds. How are people supposed to receive updates when half the stuff doesn't show up in newsletters?

Unser Ziel ist es, den Diskurs aus einer reinen Effizienzsteigerungslogik herauszuholen und mehr Menschen zu motivieren, sich in die Debatten über Städte der Zukunft einzumisch
