On 9 February 2022 (11:00-12:30 EST), the World Resources Institute and Initiative 20x20 are hosting an event for the launch of a new policy brief that examines how six Latin American countries use public funding to reward communities for protecting and growing trees, and how governments can make that spending more efficient and effective.
During the event, Policymakers from Guatemala and Chile will present the impact of their programmes on livelihoods, biodiversity and the climate, along with concrete improvements that they are making. A panel of funders will also explore how public money can leverage private investment and accelerate Latin America’s restoration movement through 2030 and beyond.
This event will be in Spanish with live interpretation in English and Portuguese.
