Abstract
This video explores the potential and limitations of Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) programs as a tool to combat deforestation. It delves into the complexities of these programs, which offer financial compensation to individuals, communities, or landholders who engage in activities that conserve and protect ecosystems. While PES programs offer promising incentives for curbing deforestation, they also present challenges, such as ‘leakage,’ where deforestation shifts to other areas if not comprehensively addressed. In this video, viewers will learn about the strategies to enhance the effectiveness of PES and be inspired to explore how PES can become a powerful tool for achieving long-term forest conservation.
