PESMIX Project. Payments for environmental services: new panacea or auxiliary for environmental management?
04/2012
Payments for Environmental Services (PES) is an instrument which use is increasingly frequent for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem ecological integrity improvement. Yet it is also a tool for poverty alleviation. Are we dealing with a new panacea or with an old wine in a new bottle? Are PES really effective for environment management purposes? With the objective of measuring the scope of the impact that PES can have into environmental and agricultural policies, Pesmix analyses the synergies and conflicts between PES and the above policies. The project has been launched in 2012 for a length of 3 years.
