She highlighted that BioPaSOS implemented an intervention model with participatory methodologies such as Field Schools, which takes into account the analysis of local problems and the construction of participatory solutions for the promotion of silvo-pastoral systems and good livestock practices from the farm level, extending it to local, national and even global scales, in order to reduce the impact on biodiversity, the impacts of climate change and support informed and timely decision making; allowing for on-farm interventions, as well as the creation of alliances with private sector actors, academia and other partners.<\/p><p>In the areas of intervention in Chiapas, Project BioPaSOS strengthened the capacities of technicians and 431 livestock producers through 27 field schools, impacting six municipalities where livestock farming is practiced.<\/p><p>In addition, with the support of local partners, we established and monitored silvo-pastoral and agro-silvopastoral plots on cattle ranches, in which the producer families have implemented good livestock practices and have seen positive results in their production and in the conservation of biodiversity.<\/p><p>The project also generated robust information for decision making through research on topics such as biodiversity monitoring, ecosystem services and water, silvo-pastoral practices and supplementation technologies, carbon storage, GHG emissions monitoring, among others.<\/p><p>During the event, the BioPaSOS project, together with SAGyP and SEMAHN, presented a jointly produced publication, which provides guidelines for promoting sustainable livestock farming in Chiapas and which will now be available for consultation at. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biopasos.com\/informes\/2022\/Lineamientos-Promo-Chiapas.pdf\">www.biopasos.com.<\/a><\/p><p>Both secretariats expressed their satisfaction with the work carried out and their commitment to continue promoting livestock production in the state of Chiapas, while at the same time conserving biodiversity.<\/p><p>To conclude the event, Jim\u00e9nez thanked all the people (especially the producer families) and institutions that in one way or another were involved in BioPaSOS, especially IKI of BMU Germany, whose generous support made the initiative possible.<\/p><p>The BioPaSOS project, which was implemented by CATIE since 2016, was supported by IICA, in coordination with the National Commission for Knowledge and Use of Biodiversity (CONABIO, its Spanish acronym) and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (AGRICULTURA), together with multiple local partners in their territories of intervention, in the states of Jalisco, Chiapas and Campeche.<\/p><p><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><figure class=\"wp-block-image
