Sustainable Development and Wild Nature Conservation in NICARAGUAVisionNicaragua in the twenty-first century faces numerous challenges simultaneously: terminating the grinding poverty among a large fraction of its population; making its natural resource base work sustainably without collapsing in the face of climate change and imprudent use and/or contamination of the environment; globalizing proactively without becoming globalized by the new and powerful actors entering Nicaragua from afar, with little regard to the culture and values or sustainability of structures in the country. Sovereignty over the use and protection of natural resources in Nicaragua, is best achieved today through robust regional and international alliances in which national interests are emphasized. All decisions regarding or affecting the natural resources of Nicaragua should include the informed and democratic participation of all interested parties. MissionTo promote the sustainable well-being of all Nicaraguans, guided by the following principles: emphasizing the sustainable and equitable use of natural resources; prioritizing the protection of wild nature and the species that depend most upon it; recognizing the dignity in all life and the processes in which each living being is found in nature; maximizing the equitable and active participation of all people in the social, cultural, and economic processes in the country. To promote novel and geniune educative processes for Nicaraguans and persons interested in Nicaragua. To promote harmonious interactions with and protection of wild nature in Nicaragua through direct actions of protection, advocacy, and the advancement of research on the environment. To promote stronger economies in harmony with the environment through the promotion of economic activities and policies which favor inclusion of marginalized people and groups and equitable access to economic benefits of the activities.
ValuesAll Nicaraguans deserve an equitable share of the benefits of society. Wild Nature existed abundantly in Nicaragua before the first human arrived and deserves to survive the arrival of humans. Wild animals deserve to be born, live and die in their natural habitat, not in cages in response to the whims of humans. The use of and policies regarding natural resources in Nicaragua should assure their sustainable use and respond to well-developed scientific analysis and the informed and beneficial participation of all people affected.
