In #Guatemala, #Indigenous women build #ClimateResilience with old and new farming methods
#AncestralKnowledge combined with #climatesmart techniques is boosting #FoodSecurity and increasing family incomes in the #LakeAtitlán region
Adam Wentworth, July 2, 2026
Excerpt: "The impacts of #ClimateChange on Indigenous communities can often lead to further #environmental damage as farmers are forced to rely on unsustainable practices, such as cutting down trees to clear more land. This can accelerate water scarcity, soil erosion and ultimately food insecurity.
"An ongoing adaptation project led by Natün has sought to reverse these impacts, working with local people to combine modern climate-smart agriculture and ancestral knowledge. The approach involves the use of #DroughtResistant crops, organic pest management and #SoilConservation techniques. This is increasingly recognised as an effective way to strengthen climate resilience.
" 'Our approach is based on soil analysis and the use of locally resilient, endemic tree species, significantly increasing survival rates and ensuring sustainable water availability despite changing rainfall patterns,' Wason explained."

In my latest episode from Lake Atitlan, I venture into Santiago, the largest city on the lake, but also one of the less-visited ones.
I had the fortune to be able to learn what the local deity "Maximon" is all about too!

In episode 4 from Lake Atitlan, I continue my exploration of San Juan La Laguna. I was able to experience a meal at Deleite Ancestral Experience, and while I didn't shoot video for it, there's a short photo essay of the experience.
