The Ministry of Natural Resources, Petroleum and Mining and the Ministry of Agriculture, Food Security and Enterprise in collaboration with the Partnership Initiative for Sustainable Land Management (PISLM), with funding from the Global Environment Facility (GEF) technical support from the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and the University of the West Indies (UWI St. Augustine), is executing a National Soil Survey in Belize. The National Soil Survey is one of the items under the project ‘Caribbean Small Island Developing States (CSIDS) Multi-Country Soil Management Initiative for Integrated Landscape Restoration and Sustainable Food Systems: Phase 1 (CSIDSSOILCARE Phase 1)’. The objective of the CSIDS SOILCARE Phase 1 project is to strengthen Caribbean SIDS with the necessary tools for adopting policies, measures, and best practices and support the review of legal and institutional frameworks to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) and Climate Resilience. The project is being implemented over the next four years in eight participating countries: Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Belize, Grenada, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, and Saint Lucia.
