WWF Colombia is supporting the National System of Protected Areas (SINAP) through policy formulation, financial sustainability, and governance. A central pillar of this effort is the 'Herencia Colombia' (HECO) program, which aims to secure $245 million to protect 29 million hectares of land and sea, contributing to Colombia's 30x30 goal. Within HECO, a GCF-funded project focuses on climate-resilient landscape management across 5.72 million hectares to sequester carbon, regulate water, and improve the resilience of local communities.

• WWF Colombia supports the National System of Protected Areas (SINAP) by focusing on the declaration and expansion of protected areas, improving financial sustainability, consolidating governance schemes, and enhancing effective management. This work includes supporting the implementation of CONPES 4050 with a vision toward 2030.
• The 'Herencia Colombia' (HECO) program, launched via a joint declaration on June 23, 2022, seeks to secure $245 million in public and private funding to permanently protect approximately 29 million hectares of terrestrial and marine landscapes. This initiative supports Colombia's '30X30' goal to protect 30% of its continental territory and seas by 2030.
• Over its first 10 years, the Herencia Colombia Financing for Permanence (PFP) intends to support the creation of over 2 million hectares of new terrestrial protected areas and approximately 15 million hectares of new marine protected areas in the Caribbean and Pacific.
• A specific GCF project within the Herencia Colombia framework aims to implement a sustainable landscape financing paradigm. It focuses on three components: improving climate-sensitive governance structures, establishing participatory monitoring systems for climate information, and enhancing land management and restoration to reduce carbon emissions.
• The GCF project's interventions will place 5.72 million hectares under climate-resilient management, directly benefiting 329,658 people. Additionally, ecosystem-based adaptation interventions for water regulation are expected to indirectly benefit 16,944,180 people, representing 33% of the total population.
