BRAVO: Barrier Removal Assessment and Viability Overview PRIDE Campaign: SAN QUINTIN. A tool for assessing feasibility and impact potential of Rare project plans Cultural/Political Impact & Metrics Technical Economics
What?: To remove the barrier of lack of local social support to create a Natural Protected Area (NPA) in San Quintín, we will implement the strategy to: “Promote and increase social participation in the conservation of the natural attributes of San Quintín through the creation of a local environmentalist group”. The local environmental group will carry out different activities to promote conservation of the natural attributes of the Valley and Bay of San Quintín, as well as to recruit friends to increase the environmentalist group, such as: 1. Workshops, lectures, talks to inform the community about the importance of the natural attributes of San Quintín. 2. Support people and local opinion leaders to strengthen the environmental culture in the San Quintín community and promote the natural treasures of San Quintín. 3. Form a group of volunteers-citizens interested in the environment and the natural resources of the Valley and Bay of San Quintín that can participate in activities about the conservation of the natural heritage of San Quintín. 4. Carry out ecological brigades. The environmentalist group will receive strategic information regarding NPA in Mexico that highlights their importance to achieve development. During this process, we will identify conservation leaders and people that support a NPA in San Quintín. To achieve the previous we will: 1. Carry out meetings and talks with neighbors and users of NPA with successful cases of development. 2. Visit, camp, meet and do talks in NPA. Inform about the benefits of a NPA as a development strategy through brochures, posters, radio programs, newspaper articles, TV programs, etc. 3. Collect signatures to create a NPA. BRAVO: Executive Brief BRAVO Scores Viability Score: 3.11 Impact Score: 3.16
BRAVO: Executive Brief Who?: Our target audience will be adult men and women, young people and local social groups with the support of newspapers, local radio stations, academic institutions, Government institutions and local leaders. The civil associations directly involved in the project are Audubon, Pro Esteros, A.C., Pronatura, Rare, Terra Peninsular, A.C. and The Nature Conservancy. These associations will provide personnel, financing resources and experience. The existing social groups in San Quintín that attend to other causes within the San Quintín community can provide TV and Radio spots and space in the local newspaper; as well as volunteers for the environmentalist group. Activities and achievements of the environmental group will be promoted through the media and will attract more public interested in participating. Government institutions will provide certainty and support to carry out activities programmed by the environmentalist group. Academic institutions will provide relevant information, certainty and credibility as well as support projects and educational and promotional activities. . Local leaders will play a key role by moving people and inducing acceptance of the environmentalist group by the community, as well as recruiting volunteers.
BRAVO: Executive Brief How?: We have contacts with a group of young environmentalists and adult local leaders interested in the environment. We will seek the support of academic and Government institutions, media, social groups and young volunteers to carry out actions-activities (lectures, talks, forum, festivals, radio and TV programs, contests, newspaper articles, etc.) focused on highlighting the ecological value of San Quintín and the importance of conserving its natural attributes. Through these events we will collect information about the attendees to invite them to take part of a group of citizens that can carry out conservation actions. The first active year of the environmental group will happen during the Pride Campaign’s framework. Leaders will be identified during the Pride Campaign that can manage and give continuity to activities of the environmental-conservationist group with the goal of having an autonomous group. The different coalition associations (Pro Esteros, A.C., The Nature Conservancy, Terra Peninsular y Pronatura) will be able to carry out support and collaboration activities with the environmentalist-conservationist local group to strengthen it and promote continuity of the process of changing the desired behavior. We will start activities to promote the NPA with the key stakeholders of the coalition and the Pride Campaign when we think appropriate (January-March 2010) and in close coordination with the process of creating the NPA by providing information of NPA in Mexico and success stories of community development in NPA, directed at first to the environmentalist group and later on to all the San Quintín community.
BRAVO: Executive Brief When? The pride campaign will begin during July, 2009 with the goal of achieving the consolidation of a local environmental group (July 2010) as well as having a list of citizens interested in the natural environmental protection and the natural resources of the Valley and Bay of San Quintín. We currently have the support of 5 high school students and have the goal of interesting young people between 25-30 years old as well as adults to form part of the environmentalist group during the months of July, August, September and October so that by mid November, 2009 we can have a local heterogeneous environmentalist-conservationist group and a group of environmentalist citizens that can regularly take part of conservation activities. We hope to have a list of people willing to sign a petition to declare San Quintín as a NPA by mid May, 2010.
