BRAVO: Barrier Removal Assessment and Viability Overview A tool for assessing feasibility and impact potential of Rare Project Plans Veracruz Raptors River: Towards the protections of habitats in the Central Coast of Veracruz: World Heritage Migratory Corridor Technical Economics Cultural/Political Impact & Metrics
What?: We seek to start, with a group of land owners, a process to look for alternative uses of land that lessen the effects of changes in soil, to protect the low forest of the Central Coast of Veracruz and achieve conservation of key habitat for migratory raptors. Such process will begin by doing the paper work to certify private conservation areas (PCA) with land owners and public land in Actopan Municipality in 500 hectares. We will add a mid and long term strategy to support applications and payment for environmental services with CONAFOR and other support needed for state and federal governments. Who?:Pronatura Veracruz A.C, with the support of CGMA (General Management of the Environment) of the Government of the State of Veracruz and Actopan City Hall, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service through NMBCA program ((Neotropicall Migratory Bird Conservation Act), Inveder ( Veracruz Institute for Rural Development and Fishing), Conafor y land owners who already have land under the status of “private conservation area”. We will approach such land owners to find out the necessary incentives and proceed to support them with the formalities to certify private conservation areas and for payment for environmental services with CONAFOR. We foresee a second consolidation cycle for the processes in 2010. How?: Through planning workshops, training, experience and activities exchanges in the field that can capture the land owners attention and allow us to know what their incentives and worries are, to instill in them the need to protect their land and change their soil use practices in small steps (in at least part of their land) and the will to legally protect their land as private conservation areas. . BRAVO: Executive Brief BRAVO Scoring Viability Score: 3.03 Impact Score: 3.44
Barrier Removal Assessment and Viability Overview (BRAVO)/ Enter average scores in the right hand column. Then take the feasibility score and enter it into Miradi and the Impact score and enter it into Miradi. Where either score is below X for either feasibly or impact, consider the strategy to be inappropriate and assess the need to conduct a second BRAVO that reviews a different strategy. .
