MESA - Accelerating living landscapes across Mesoamerica - is a Solidaridad-led programme that creates new opportunities for economic growth and profit, aligned with ecological regeneration and social inclusivity at landscape level in Mesoamerica. Currently, unsustainable agriculture and land use are causing deforestation, soil erosion, increased water stress, and rising greenhouse gas emissions. Climate change further exacerbates this situation in what is one of the world’s most climate-vulnerable regions. Solidaridad believes that a new breed of asset investments into sustainable agribusiness and forestry initiatives, facilitated by enabling investments at landscape level, can turn this situation around: moving beyond the business-as-usual paradigm, often based on short-term extractivism, by demonstrating how a more sustainable and inclusive pathway to growth across the region generates long-term, win-win benefits for people, profit and planet.
