| Descripción: | The Southern Nicoya Nesting Beach project, or PLANS, began in 1998. The project coordinates actions among development associations, artisanal fishing associations, and community members to promote the conservation, research, protection, and management of the area’s coastal-marine resources of Nandayure. To date, the project Plans has consolidated effective protection of five turtle nesting beaches (Caletas, Costa de Oro, San Miguel, Liana, and Corozalito), in joint projects with coastal communities and Area of conservation Tempisque (ACT) of the National System of Conservation Areas (SINAC). In addition, a participatory process with the same organizations has led to the creation of two Marine Protected Areas (MPAs): one for the National Wildlife Refuge (RNVS) Caletas-Ario in 2006 and one for the RNVS Camaronal in 2009. Both areas carry a multi use designation and prohibit the operation of destructive fisheries. PLANS is currently working on creating a new MPA to connect the two existing MPAs, an area known as the "triangle," which would aim to promote sustainable fisheries for spotted snapper whilst using an ecosystem approach. The PLANS project creates benefits and opportunities to artisanal fishermen and community development associations, as well as protecting a diverse array of endangered marine species and the critical habitats on which they depend. |
