Asegurando el Futuro de las Áreas Protegidas del Perú

The document outlines the Environmental and Social Management Framework (MGAS) for a project aimed at the long-term financial sustainability of Peru's National System of Protected Natural Areas (SINANPE) in the Amazon biome. It identifies potential environmental and social risks associated with infrastructure investments and resource management across six pre-selected protected areas. The framework integrates WWF's Integrated Safeguard Policies and Procedures (PPIS), specifically addressing natural habitats, involuntary resettlement, and indigenous peoples. It establishes a governance structure involving PROFONANPE and SERNANP, a grievance mechanism, and requirements for Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIA) for specific investments.

• The project focuses on six pre-selected protected areas in the eastern slopes of the Andes: Santuario Nacional Tabaconas Namballe, Reserva Comunal Machiguenga, Reserva Nacional Allpahuayo Mishana, Parque Nacional Tingo María, Parque Nacional del Río Abiseo, and Reserva Nacional Pacaya-Samiria.
• The project is classified as Category 'B' because most identified adverse environmental impacts are relatively small in magnitude and reversible.
• Three specific WWF safeguard policies are activated: Natural Habitat, Involuntary Resettlement (due to potential restrictions on resource extraction for subsistence), and Indigenous Peoples (specifically for Reserva Nacional Pacaya-Samiria and Reserva Comunal Machiguenga).
• A specific Indigenous Peoples Plan (PPI) is required for Reserva Nacional Pacaya-Samiria, whereas for Reserva Comunal Machiguenga, the existing co-management contract with the ECA Maeni is considered to fulfill these requirements.
• The project implements a financial model through a Transition Fund managed by PROFONANPE to improve the management of between 2 and 4 selected protected areas.
• To mitigate social risks, the project requires an Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and an Environmental and Social Management Plan (PGAS) for every planned investment.
• A formal Grievance Mechanism (MR) must be established, requiring responses to complaints within 15 days and the inclusion of an impartial appeals system if the initial solution is unsatisfactory.
• The project identifies specific risks for different areas, such as oil spills in Reserva Comunal Machiguenga and Reserva Nacional Pacaya-Samiria, and illegal mining in Santuario Nacional Tabaconas Namballe.
