Description

The JIGRANTU REDD+ Project is being developed in the Colombian Pacific region within the boundaries of the Community Councils of La Grande (13,252 ha), Río Jiguamiandó (51,504 ha) and Turriquitadó (9,256 ha) with a total of 74,012 ha of which 68,899 ha correspond to forest eligible for the project. The main objective of the project is to environmentally and culturally conserve the territory of the councils, through the consolidation of self-government, strengthening of traditional knowledge, actions for sustainable development, and monitoring and control of the territory, to improve the quality of life of the communities that inhabit it over the duration of the project (30 years).
