NATURAL CAPITAL: BELIZE

The Natural Capital Project is a Stanford University initiative which aims to help global decision-makers to consider nature's diverse benefits through economically measurable metrics. This film highlights a long-standing collaboration with the Natural Capital Project, the Belizean government, and local NGOs to leverage Belize's natural capital and create innovative avenues of prosperity for both people and nature.

It was a challenging but rewarding edit, where I had to find a way to illustrate such a complex conceptual subject in a way that is digestible, engaging, and makes effective use of the beautiful visuals of Belize’s natural landscapes. With the help of the production team at Impact Media Lab, I believe we crafted a great piece. It is an inspiring story of how Belize has set an example for other countries in the region and around the world for how to take care of its environment while remaining economically prosperous.
