Explain how cultural diffusion occurred in Mesoamerica despite the fact that the Olmec, Maya, and Aztec civilizations did not rule at the same time.

Explanation:GWC’s partnership-based model and diverse range of solutions allow us to design strategies that match the different scopes and scales of the hotspot’s conservation challenges. Across the region, we work with local and indigenous communities, local NGOs, rangers, governments, as well as with impassioned and committed individuals.

We engage in projects that vary from interventions for specific species to supporting improved management for the largest intact forests to conducting surveys to ensure the wellbeing of forest rangers. Our flexibility allows us to respectfully and effectively engage the right partners at the right scale needed to mitigate the unique set of threats facing a species, ecosystem, protected area, or indigenous territory. We work toward ensuring a safe future for the cultural, linguistic, and biological diversity that makes Mesoamerica one of the most amazing places on Earth.

Partner with Indigenous Peoples

Across Mesoamerica, many indigenous groups struggle with maintaining their rights to their ancestral lands and protecting it from encroaching development, largely driven by cattle ranching. We work with such groups to support their efforts to secure their land and confront key threats within it.

Indio Maiz Protected Area Management Planning

Communities identified values, threats and actions for Indio Maíz.

In Nicaragua’s Indio Maíz Biological Reserve, we have worked with the Rama and Kriol to develop an autonomous system of management within the 80% of the reserve that falls within their ancestral lands. We have supported the setup an independent ranger force, helped them implement the Spatial Monitoring and Reporting Tool (SMART), developed a system for financial administration, and created a comprehensive, visual management plan.

Preserve the Five Forests

We work closely with regional partners, including Wildlife Conservation Society, to implement large-scale programs to protect the five largest intact forests in Mesoamerica: the Maya Forest in Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize; the Moskitia in Nicaragua and Honduras; the Indio Maíz-Tortuguero in Nicaragua and Costa Rica; the Talamanca Region in Costa Rica and Panama; and the Darien in Panama and Colombia.

In Honduras’s Moskitia region, we have worked with WCS and the Kaha Kamasa Foundation to create an unprecedented consortium of indigenous, NGO, and government partners to protect this irreplaceable landscape and its unique and critically endangered natural and cultural heritage.

Protect Unprotected Key Biodiversity Areas and Endangered Species

We work to find strategies to protect unprotected Key Biodiversity Areas and endangered species. When appropriate, we work with partner organizations to purchase lands and convert them into protected areas.

We also collaborate with regional organizations such as Panthera to design regional approaches to preventing wildlife crime and improving local management. In some cases, such as the Baird’s Tapir Survival Alliance, we identify individual local partners to design and implement strategies to ensure the survival of local forests and species.

sorry if it dosnt help

dickinson punctuation and lines in her poems to establish a rhythm. each reader will naturally find themselves reading the poem in the same way. she uses the repeating question marks and exclamation points to convey the passion in her words. shelley uses punctuation to paint a picture in the reader's mind. for example, the ellipses after "stand in the dessert" evoke a silence, as it would feel in a deserted, old place.

"a" because he is appealing to logic as oppose to appealing to the audience's emotions.
