As part of their commitment to sustainability and community development, Renace Hydroelectric and CMI, Corporación Multi Inversiones organized the III Environmental Forum: Forests, Communities, and Nature Reserves 2024.
This event, held at the Don Bosco Center in San Pedro Carchá, Alta Verapaz, brought together experts, thought leaders, and representatives from various institutions with one clear goal: to strengthen environmental conservation strategies and promote cooperation for the protection of forests and nature reserves in the region.
The Importance of Environmental Conservation
During the forum, the urgent need to take decisive action to address climate change was emphasized—a global challenge that requires collaboration across all sectors of society. Participants discussed strategies for forest conservation, a vital resource for ecological balance and the well-being of local communities. The protection of nature reserves was also addressed, with these areas playing a crucial role in preserving biodiversity and mitigating the effects of climate change.
The forum also served as a platform for different social actors and institutions in the region to reflect on their roles in environmental protection. Experts shared their knowledge and experiences, enriching the dialogue and strengthening alliances for sustainability.
Collaboration for Sustainable Development
One of the key highlights of the forum was the collaboration between the public and private sectors, as well as the active participation of local communities. In this regard, cross-sector cooperation is fundamental to the success of environmental initiatives, and the event reinforced the importance of working together to create a positive and lasting impact on both the natural environment and the communities.
It is important to note that, at CMI, strategic partnerships are a core pillar for sustainable development. The forum facilitated the consolidation of cooperation agreements among the various stakeholders, demonstrating that unity is essential to tackling today’s environmental challenges.
A Shared Commitment to Sustainability
The closing of the III Environmental Forum was a significant moment symbolizing the commitment of all participants to environmental conservation. The signing of the Declaration for the Protection and Conservation of the Environment represented a joint promise to continue working towards the protection of natural resources for future generations.
Renace, as part of CMI Capital, plays a crucial role in the corporation’s sustainability strategy. CMI, with over 100 years of history and currently led by the third generation of the family—Juan Luis Bosch Gutiérrez, Chairman of CMI Capital, and Juan José Gutiérrez Mayorga, Chairman of CMI Foods—has demonstrated its ability to generate sustainable development with a positive impact on people, families, and communities.
The organization of this forum is yet another example of CMI’s dedication to environmental conservation and building a sustainable future for all.
