Residents of Belize are invited to join us for community consultations on the Draft Belize Sustainable Ocean Plan (BSOP): https://bsop.coastalzonebelize.org/draft-bsop-plan/

Come learn about:
– What is included in the Draft Belize Sustainable Ocean Plan
– The different marine zone types and their purpose
– Activities that may be allowed or restricted in different areas
– Key sectors including fishing, tourism, and maritime administration

We want to hear from you:
Does the information in the plan reflect how you currently use Belize’s ocean and coastal areas?
Are there areas you may want to use in the future?
Are there any conflicts or challenges between different users of these spaces?

Join the conversation and help shape the future of Belize’s ocean space.
