Programme for Belize

The Programme for Belize is a private initiative, established in 1988 by Ben Campbell and Arnold Brown. Massachusetts Audubon Society generously provided financial support and management guidance to identify boundaries of the property, successfully maneuver governmental requirements, and effect the purchase of over 300,000 acres of tropical forest in Belize. Loans were given to PfB by The Nature Conservancy. The World Land Trust helped Pfb raise funds to reduce the debt. Many other eco-driven organizations have helped raise funds to maintain and protect the property.

The current executive director of Programme for Belize is Edilberto Romero.
