Please do get in touch if you're working on any forestry projects integrating revenues from payments for ecosystem services in the EU or internationally. We'd love to include your project and learnings in a report we're putting together for the European Investment Bank (EIB).

Do you know any forestry projects integrating payments for ecosystem services into their sustainable forest business model/plan? We are working with Finance Earth to identify forestry projects that are generating complementary revenue streams through enhancing forest ecosystem services (eg biodiversity, watershed services, soil conservation, recreational/ecotourism, carbon storage/sequestration). PES can strengthen incentives for land managers to adopt biodiversity- and climate-friendly forest management practices and compensate foregone income, supporting the multifunctional role of forests in line with the EU Forest Strategy. Through this assignment, we want to identify promising cases and prepare guidance to build capacity of forestry stakeholders for identifying and developing ecosystem services monetization opportunities. Please drop us a note if you’re aware of relevant projects/initiatives (inside or outside the EU) that we should look at!
