Small Grant Program for the Bolivian Portion of the Vilcabamba-Amboró Conservation Corridor

Establish and administer a $1 million small grants fund within Fundación Puma in Bolivia to support projects within the Vilcabamba-Amboró Corridor of Bolivia that help local communities better manage and use their natural resources in and around the protected areas of the corridor. CEPF and Fundación Puma will each contribute $500,000. This fund directly supports the CEPF strategic direction for the Tropical Andes Hotspot to encourage community-based biodiversity conservation.
