Duration: January 2004 to December 2007
(MPO involvement funded up to December 2006)
The objective of this project, implemented by WWF International, is to contribute to poverty reduction in the four countries through improved land, water and forest management in selected river basins and forest ecoregions.
The project was launched in January 2004 with a work plan development workshop in Gland, organized by the WWF-International Forest Program with active participation from MPO.
The MPO seeks to strengthen the analytical foundations and strategic interventions undertaken by our project partners in the four countries, and to help civil society organizations more effectively participate in the management of freshwater and forest ecosystems and influence local, national and international policies and planning processes.
Country teams have hired project staff and are starting to design analytical work for the project with MPO assistance, including field work in Peru/Ecuador and Zambia.
