INVALUABLE is a project will take place over 2012-2015 and involves 10 partners: Institut du Développement Durable et des Relations Internationales (IDDRI), Radboud University Nijmegen (CIDIN), Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), Centre de coopération International en Recherche Agronomique pour le Développement (CIRAD), Université Catholique de Louvain (UCL), Institut de Recherche pour le Développement (IRD), Institute for European Environmental Policy (IEEP), Universität Freiburg (IFP), Wageningen Universiteit (Environmental Sciences Group), Matthieu Wemaëre Cabinet d’Avocats.
The policy objective of INVALUABLE is to support a better informed use (and non-use) of market-based instruments (MBIs) and economic valuations for ecosystem services, biodiversity, and society. Without prejudging the desirability of using these policy instruments and valuations, and taking stock of the contrasted views between stakeholders and countries, teams in the project will eventually inform decision-makers on the range of available options and their consequences with MBIs as a departing point. These decision-makers may be part of government agencies, aid agencies and development banks, NGOs, private companies. |
