Approaches to include Socio-Economic Aspects in the CAP Processes developed in Guatemala Estuardo Secaira Río San Pedro, Petén, Guatemala Fotografía: Estuardo Secaira
Include them through the participation of appropiate stakeholders People for whom socio-economic concerns are a priority: can be part of the planning team, depending of local realities. Sarstún Management Consortium, Cerro San Gil Executive Board. should be invited to the CAP workshops and meetings, and their points of view should be taking into account.
Include them as a crucial part of the context Collect and/or develop social, economic and cultural information about your area of work. Include that information appropiately in the Situation Analysis of your targets (as stakeholders, indirect threats or factors, opportunities, etc.)
Viability, Integrity and Significance Analysis Include them as targets (1a) Viability, Integrity and Significance Analysis (1) (2) Conservation Targets Natural Cultural Economic Activities Social “Aspects” Threat Analysis (3) Situation Analysis (5) Measures of Success (6) Strategies (4) Capacity Analysis
Categories and examples of Cultural, Economic and Social Targets Tangible Cultural Targets Archaeological Sites Archaeological Sites grouped in Cultural Zones Cultural Movable Objects Historical documents Historical Buildings Non-tangible Cultural Targets Sacred Sites (mix of both…) Traditional knowledge Oral traditions Indigenous culture (as a whole…)
Categories and examples of Cultural, Economic and Social Targets Economic Activities Tourism Fisheries Forestry Cattle Ranching Agriculture Social “Aspects” (a better term??) Land tenure security Access to basic services Community cohesiveness Community participation Governance?
Considerations for the inclusion of Cultural, Economic and Social Targets They should exist within the boundaries of the planning site. They should be closely (inextricably??) linked to the management of the planning site. Ideally, there should be organizations and people interested in their “management” do not define “orphan” strategies.
Lessons learned regarding the inclusion of Cultural, Economic and Social Targets CAP logic works well for cultural targets and economic activities (we are testing it for social aspects…) All need a conceptual adaptation, like this...Cultural Integrity Analysis.ppt Short threat analysis – directly to sources of pressure – it may work better for non-tangible cultural targets, economic activities and social aspects. Try to do Situation Analysis first, in order to organize the causation chain of your threats. Strategic objectives for non-tangible cultural targets have focused on the improvement of the key attributes, instead of abating threats that are beyond the reach of managers.
