AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Marine Invasives: Belize’s marine risk spotlighted by the “red lionfish” hunt in Israel, a reminder of how invasive species spread via canals and can rapidly reshape ecosystems. Coastal Protection & Dredging: Belize’s government is temporarily halting dredging in sensitive coastal areas, including a six-month moratorium tied to Placencia Lagoon and Ambergris Caye—pushed by concerns that deeper, murkier water disrupts seagrass and harms manatees and other lagoon life. Wildlife Health: Manatee researchers say dredging impacts show up in manatee blood samples, arguing the moratorium must be enforceable, not “on paper.” Ocean Planning: Stakeholders in Belize City reviewed draft zoning and management measures for the Belize Sustainable Ocean Plan under the Blue Bond goal of protecting at least 30% of marine space. Hurricane Readiness: Belize City Council is boosting 2026 hurricane preparedness through emergency planning sessions with meteorology briefings. Indigenous Land Rights: Indigenous leaders are pushing back on government land plans affecting Maya customary tenure and Garifuna village boundary definitions along the Placencia/Stann Creek coast. Environment Day & Climate Action: Belize marked World Environment Day with calls for climate action and public responsibility. Digital Resilience: A regional workshop in Belize City focused on protecting critical government data during disasters and cyber threats.
