Our Team and Partnerships
The Biodiversity Reserve in Magdalena Bay is being developed by a coalition of actors that includes Fundación MarVivo, CONANP and the communities. Through environmental monitoring and capacity building, we aim to promote the sustainable use of natural resources.
The communities around Magdalena will be the main stakeholders in all programs through the creation of community enterprises, which will make them long-term catalysts for net positive change.
Fundación Marvivo will seek market-based conservation strategies that address the environmental, economic and social concerns of partner communities.
Environmental initiatives are being designed in collaboration with government and community partners to ensure program relevance, sustainability, and strong cause-and-effect scenarios.
Unlike traditional conservation initiatives that often arouse suspicion and contempt and are often transient in nature, Fundación Marvivo employs a true partnership model that builds generational relationships and produces transformative results.
When local communities are involved in the governance and protection of their ecosystems, much of the pressure on both nature and governments can be alleviated.
