Factsheet
Brief outline of PfR's intervention in Guatemala containing key data about the area of the beneficiaries in the Chiquimula Department.
Drug-related violence has increased and is more visible. The clear examples are the declaration of state in Coban and Peten (first part of 2011) after violent actions related to drug trafficking. Some working areas are affected by the infiltration of drug trafficking (Izabal, Zacapa and Chiquimula).
Because of national elections and the transition of the new government in the last quarter of 2011, substantial changes in the key positions of both the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (MARN) and the National Commission on Protected Areas (CONAP) are expected.
