WHERE Mexico
Summary
Mexico’s Northwest and West varied unique ecosystems provide environmental services to over 20.9M people. However, the region’s ecological balance is vulnerable and faces aggravated consequences due to climate change and overexploitation, particularly water stress, extreme warming and economic losses. Complex environmental problems require systemic approaches, such as nature-based solutions, and collaboration of multiple stakeholders, including civil society organisations and local communities. Strengthening these organisations’ capacities will contribute to containing the environmental crisis, while providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits.
