About
The FLOWS bulletin provides an occasional review of selected topics that pertain to assessment of the effectiveness of payment arrangements for watershed services and lessons being learned, highlighting:
- Gaps between theory and practice,
- The science and policy interface,
- Relevant information from diverse areas of knowledge,
- Multiple perspectives, and
- Rules-of-Thumb, as revealed by current practices.
Each issue features:
- A review of selected special topics that pertain to assessment of the effectiveness of payment initiatives,
- A guide to resources pertinent to featured topics,
- A space for reader commentary and responses to previous issues, and
- Announcements of pertinent new reports and papers, and upcoming events.
Flows is produced by Sylvia S. Tognetti, an independent consultant, with initial support and collaboration from the International Institute for Environment and Development, and the The World Bank, through the Bank-Netherlands Watershed Partnership Program (BNWPP).
The Flows Bulletin is a forum for multiple perspectives, and does not necessarily represent the views of the sponsoring organizations.
It is available in English and in Spanish.
