Incentives for Ecosystem Services

Latin America Regional Policy Dialogue: Integrating tools to generate ecosystem services from agriculture: Experiences and perspectives from Latin America and the Caribbean

07/07/2015

The Latin America Regional Policy Dialogue on Incentives for Ecosystem Services from Agriculture (IES) was held in Bogota, Colombia 7-8 July 2015. This was organised in collaboration with FAO RLC and FAO Colombia, and coincided with discussions of the 2nd draft of the Voluntary Guidelines for Agri-Environmental Policies for Latin America and the Caribbean.

The Policy Dialogue aimed to share experiences, lessons learned and facilitate discussions based on case studies on ways to promote the integration of public-private initiatives for policies to support IES in Latin America and the Caribbean, and identify synergies between IES and the Agri-Environmental Voluntary Guidelines.
