In addition, he announced that as a result of the joint work with the Atabey Foundation, at least two indexed scientific publications are planned, consolidating the generation of technical knowledge in this emerging field.\n\nThe workday included high-level international panels, including that of Argentine expert Nicol\u00e1s Ezequiel Gaioli, who analyzed the role of blue carbon in the voluntary market, and that of Jony Vel\u00e1zquez, who presented a successful conservation experience in Mexico through carbon-based financing mechanisms.\n\nThe attendees actively participated in thematic working tables, where they identified environmental and social safeguards, potential risks, and formulated key recommendations for the Dominican blue carbon credit system.\n\nThe event concluded with the words of the president of the Atabey Foundation, Domingo Contreras, who reaffirmed the commitment to continue promoting innovative financial instruments to support ecological restoration, the sustainable management of protected areas, and actions against climate change.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
