Policy & Advocacy<\/h2>

Our Policy & Advocacy pillar generates thought leadership and research to guide strategies for the Visitor Economy, resilience, and economic development. This unit collects data to measure and track impact, while collaborating with global partners to publicize the findings and recommendations that will transform Puerto Rico. By identifying critical challenges and opportunities affecting the development and management of the destination, the team also provides recommendations for improving the resilience of communities.<\/p>

Visitor Economy<\/h2>

Our Visitor Economy pillar seeks to grow this economic model in the rural communities of Puerto Rico by developing destination plans alongside communities. Through this pillar, we are cultivating the natural, cultural, and human capital assets in each destination, to create an explosion of sustainable and authentic experiences for visitors from around the world.<\/p>

Resilience<\/h2>

Our Resilience pillar seeks to mentor, prepare, and fund existing and emerging new businesses in order to inspire a new generation of resilient entrepreneurs, prepared to survive and thrive under unforeseen circumstances. We also work with local NGOs, governments, businesses, and stakeholders across all communities to facilitate comprehensive planning that will lead to sustainable and measurable improvements in community resilience across the island.<\/p>

The maps have been classified into the following focus areas:<\/p>
