restoration, socio-environmental resilience, productive scaling, coffee, biodiversity, and climate transparency, among others.<\/p><p>Each project shared its current status and perspectives, as well as spaces for exchange of experiences, scaling, and complementarity, both in thematic and territorial terms.<\/p><p>The space made it possible to identify synergies among projects, explore technical exchanges and scaling opportunities, as well as update institutional participation in forums, platforms, and working groups.<\/p><p>Within the framework of the meeting, the preparation of CATIE\u2019s 2026 Country Report in Guatemala was also addressed, and information was shared on the academic offerings and financing opportunities of the Graduate School, reinforcing the link between research, education, and territorial development.<\/p><p>CATIE Director General, Dr. Luis Pocasangre, highlighted the relevance of this initiative and its potential to consolidate a more integrated working dynamic with the National Offices: \u201cI would like to wish you a very productive day of work and for you to know that CATIE\u2019s General Directorate has viewed this initiative very positively, and we hope it will serve as an example to replicate and turn this into a dynamic through which we can have interaction with the National Offices.\u201d<\/p><p>Likewise, during the afternoon session, topics related to institutional visibility and positioning, administrative aspects, follow-up, and commitments were addressed, consolidating a roadmap to strengthen CATIE\u2019s presence and impact in Guatemala.<\/p><p>In Guatemala, CATIE seeks to work in an articulated manner, generate applied knowledge, and build strategic alliances that contribute to the country\u2019s and the region\u2019s inclusive green development.<br><\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"530\"
