Communities have lost their loved ones, livelihoods, and land. Guatemala's Fondo de Tierras department has been providing those most affected by the war with new land to restore their livelihoods.

Many regions in the world have lands that once were productive for agriculture and coastal fishing, but have been destroyed so they can no longer support those livelihoods.
