From February 14 to the 19th, 25 indigenous peoples' representatives and experts from Costa Rica, Guatemala, El Salvador, Panama, Nicaragua and Honduras met in Panama City to learn and discuss on the practical uses of the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries and Forests in the Context of National Food Security (VGGT) for indigenous peoples. This capacity-building initiative, which is being implemented in partnership with Centro para la Autonomía y Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas (CADPI), has been build up to support indigenous peoples in improving their tenure issues, in particular by strengthening their capacity to participate and contribute effectively to the wider ongoing dialogue on tenure-policy in their countries.
