Submitted by Carola Chiusi on 5 September 2022
This case study from the SINCERE project had the goal to:
- Include forests and forestry in a joint strategic planning tool with participatory design of a local forest fund.
- The innovative mechanism (IM) consists of a payment for ecosystem services (PES) scheme focused on forests and water, strengthening governance for joint forest-water planning and on finding new resources to support forest owners to provide water-related services.
