Guatemala is among 20 “megadiverse” countries listed under the Convention on Biological Diversity, although many of its forests and much of its biodiversity are threatened by the expansion of agriculture and the unsustainable use of forests. UNDP Guatemala works to support the protection of forests, ecosystems and the conservation of biodiversity.
