dc.description.abstractThe Latin America and Caribbean Region has been at the forefront of global biodiversity conservation, dedicating 20 percent of its land to protected areas compared to 13 percent in the rest of the developing world. This progress has stretched available budgets for conservation with estimates indicating that a twofold increase would be necessary to achieve optimal management of existing protected areas based on 2008 data. Recognizing the importance of this financing challenge, this document presents examples of how the region is successfully exploring news ways and sources of finance for biodiversity conservation. It is intended as an input to the global discussions on biodiversity financing drawing from a selective review of concrete experiences where governments are tapping nonpublic finance sources in effective partnerships. The cases reviewed point to common features contributing to their success: (i) variety in arrangements; (ii) enabling legal and institutional support; (iii) capacity based on record of experience; (iv) building social capital; (v) clarity about conservation objectives; (vi) strong government leadership in guiding biodiversity conservation policies and programs.en
dc.description.abstractLa evidencia disponible muestra que la biodiversidad y la salud de los ecosistemas se están reduciendo en todo el mundo. En un contexto global de presupuestos restringidos y crecimiento económico lento, el financiamiento público de la biodiversidad podría ser difícil de mantener y todavía más difícil de aumentar. El reconocimiento del potencial de los ecosistemas para el crecimiento económico y social y la creación de asociaciones público-privadas para invertir en riqueza natural pueden contribuir a transformar la conservación de la biodiversidad en un motor del crecimiento, de un crecimiento más verde e inclusivo. Es una realidad que la región de América Latina y el Caribe lidera conservación de la biodiversidad a nivel mundial. La región dedica el 20 por ciento de su territorio a la conservación y supera con creces el promedio del 13 por ciento alcanzado por otras regiones en desarrollo del mundo Esta publicación se centra en ilustrar los enfoques adoptados en cuatro países (Brasil, Colombia, México y Perú) para abordar el reto del financiamiento al que se enfrentan para gestionar áreas de conservación de la biodiversidad bien establecidas. El aprendizaje de estas y otras experiencias prometedoras de planes de financiamiento exitosos es una parte indispensable de la planificación de los esfuerzos de conservación futuros y un prerrequisito para hacer realidad la ambición de aumentar las áreas protegidas mundialmente.es
