Plan de adaptación multiactor para hacer frente a los bosques bajo riesgo creciente de incendios

The MAP-Fire project (2019–2022) focused on the 'MAP' region (Madre de Dios in Peru, Acre in Brazil, and Pando in Bolivia) to address the increasing risk of forest fires driven by climate change and land-use changes. Key achievements include the development of a real-time fire monitoring platform, the quantification of significant economic losses in Acre, Brazil, and the identification of air quality crises linked to fire events. The project also integrated fire risk education into public schools and provided technical reports to governments to support National Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction.

• The project developed a new methodology to estimate economic losses from fires in Acre, Brazil. For the extreme dry year of 2010, losses were estimated between 243.36 and 85.05 million USD, and the total from 2008 to 2012 reached 307.46.41 million USD, representing between 2.46% and 9.07% of Acre's GDP.
• Air quality monitoring in 22 municipalities of Acre, Brazil, revealed that in 2019, air pollution levels exceeded the World Health Organization's maximum daily limit on 21 days. This poor air quality was linked to fires that burned 1,802 km², an 80% increase compared to 2018.
• Analysis of data from 1998 to 2016 indicates that population migration to urban centers and growth in southern Acre has increased the number of people exposed to poor air quality caused by fires by more than 80,000.
• The project created an online platform for the 'MAP-Fire' region (Madre de Dios, Acre, and Pando) that provides near real-time data on fire occurrences integrated with spatial information such as roads, land use, schools, and health centers to support decision-making.
• Research indicates that existing forest fire contingency plans designed for normal climate years are ineffective, as climate is becoming a more significant driver of negative impacts. Forests become more vulnerable and fire-affected areas increase during extreme droughts.
• The project implemented an elective course at the Instituto de Educación Lorenzo Filho in Rio Branco, Acre, combining Geography and Arts to teach students about fire risks and impacts, with plans to expand to three other public schools via a 'Manual of Activities' and a 'Theoretical Background Book'.
