Dan:

At http://bit.ly/laboquilla observing problems and talking with local
people & institutions, in companion of Fundación Ecoprogreso we create this
project concept:

Explained with more details here:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1720266/Social_Innovation_for_magrove_conservation.pdf

This is a first pieze to promote conservation between local community and
constructors --like hotels-- (in spanish only, sorry), thanks to
contribution of Ceelat:

The project has a GIS component to share data and graphs with population,
so throught workshops with communities (CoP) hope to arise iniciative to
strenght development opportunities (ecotourism, watersports & fishing).
One of GIS layers is recent colective titulation of land for this
fishermans village.

Please let me know about your interest to start conversation about it with
local actors,
