Abstract
The initiative began in 2018 with the development of a technical document, CPS C&G-G-197 of 2019, which outlines the variables and methodologies for zonification and environmental management. The document identifies several key variables that intervene in the model of environmental zonification, including Parques Nacionales Naturales, Áreas de Importancia Estratégica (AIE), POMCAS, Corredores de conectividad, Ronda Hídrica, and Áreas con pendientes superiores al 100%. These variables are categorized into different management categories, including Preservación, Restauración, Rehabilitación, and Recuperación. The zonification process involves articulating the DCSAC's zonification with other initiatives, such as the MADS (Sistema de Manejo de Áreas de Conservación) and MOTRA (Sistema de Manejo de Áreas de Conservación). The document outlines the preliminary zonification, prioritized and redefined zonification, and the categorization of areas into different management categories. The document also provides guidelines for management in each of the areas, including Preservación, Restauración, Rehabilitación, and Recuperación. The guidelines outline the strategies for intervention in each area, including the use of indicators and the implementation of conservation and management plans. The document includes several tables and figures that illustrate the variables and methodologies used in the zonification process. These include tables that outline the agrupamiento of variables, the adaptation of objectives, and the ponderación of variables. The document also includes figures that illustrate the relationship between the categories of management and areas of intervention, as well as the esquema cartográfico of the zonification. The DCSAC initiative aims to strengthen environmental management in the region by identifying areas of high conservation value and implementing strategies for their protection and management. The initiative is based on a technical document that outlines the variables and methodologies used in the zonification process, as well as guidelines for management in each of the areas. The document provides a comprehensive framework for environmental management in the region, taking into account the different variables and methodologies used in the zonification process. The guidelines for management in each area provide a clear direction for conservation and management efforts, and the use of indicators and conservation and management plans ensures that the areas are protected and managed effectively. The DCSAC initiative is an important step towards strengthening environmental management in the region, and the technical document provides a solid foundation for the implementation of conservation and management plans. The initiative has the potential to make a significant impact on the conservation of biodiversity and the protection of natural resources in the region. The document outlines the implementation details for the DCSAC initiative, including the use of indicators and conservation and management plans. The initiative is focused on the geographic area of the DCSAC, and the document provides a comprehensive framework for environmental management in this area. The timeframes for the implementation of the DCSAC initiative are not specified in the document, but the initiative is expected to have a long-term impact on the conservation of biodiversity and the protection of natural resources in the region. The document provides a clear direction for conservation and management efforts, and the use of indicators and conservation and management plans ensures that the areas are protected and managed effectively.
