On Friday, March 31, 2023, we held a training workshop on the Valorization of Ecosystem Services for the resilience of local communities.
In a context where the UN Environment Program indicated that only 3% of climate adaptation initiatives have reported real results in reducing the risks of impacts on local communities (UNEP, 2020). Likewise, the World Economic Forum indicated that only 1.6% of adaptation initiatives are financed by the private sector (WEF, 2022).
We discussed with Rodrigo Rodriguez Tornquist, former Vice Minister of the Environment of Argentina, Christoph Jungfleisch, CEO of Yapu Solutions, and Ana Maria Mahecha, Founder of KOKO DAO, about: How can we create a concrete alternative for philanthropists, investors, donor countries of international cooperation and technology developers value ecosystem services and support local communities to generate their own climate resilience
