dc.description.abstractPrograms using payments for environmental services to help conserve natural resources have become more and more popular around the world during the last two decades. Costa Rica has been a leader in this field and now has a very successful program which recognizes the value of environmental services and financially rewards the people who provide them. This presentation will explain how this program works and how it has evolved through the years since it was first implemented in 1997.
