  • Cepf Final Project Completion Report
    CEPF FINAL PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT I. BASIC DATA Organization Legal Name: Sano y Salvo Project Title (as stated in the grant agreement): Preventing Agricultural Encroachment Into Indo Maíz Biological Reserve and Cerro Silva Nature Reserve Through the Introduction of Sustainable Agriculture in Their Buffer Zones Implementation Partners for this Project: Project Dates (as stated in the grant agreement): 1.6.2004 – 31.8.2007 Date of Report (month/year): 7 January 2008 II. OPENING REMARKS Provide any opening remarks that may assist in the review of this report. The project developed fine; with some goals we are behind schedule, but that is no reason to worry about, because we continue the same kind of work anyway, because it is an essential part of our association's vision, mission (and statutes!) to save biodiversity, to rescue the biosphere of SE Nicaragua, to promote ecological agriculture and to prevent agricultural encroachment into Indo Maíz biological reserve and Cerro Silva natural reserve through the introduction, continuation and amplification of sustainable agriculture in their buffer zones, and beyond that: all over the Región Autónoma Atlántico Sur (and with first contacts to people in the RAAN, too) and in the department of Río San Juan as well. Part of the time the administrative communication between us and CEPF was difficult, because we did sometimes send quarterly reports sort of late, (caused by our big work load), and sometimes CEPF did not react on applications from us: we got wrong forms, CEPF sent correct ones 8 months later; we asked frequently for audio visual and printed material for our environment education campaigns, we never got it nor an answer, and in 2007 we did not get any money transferred until Christmas (where we got a small amount of the money CEPF owes us), although we had agreed upon and it was practice till 2006/IV that after each report the money is sent.
