The project will consist of three components: 1) Improved policy planning and governance to reduce deforestation and enhance sustainable production; 2) Financial mechanisms and market incentives promote sustainable production practices and 3) Technical capacity installed to restore and sustain ecosystem services in target landscapes. It will generate global environmental benefits in the BD, LD, SFM and CC focal areas, working with national, regional and local governments, private sector actors and producers of a range of different scales with the aim of reducing rates of conversion of natural forests to agriculture and ranching by helping to ensure that productive activities are appropriately located in the landscape, supporting environmental governance, and ensuring that producers have access to the capacities and incentives required to enable them to apply sustainable production systems, paying particular attention to oil palm and cocoa production. The outputs will be delivered in such a way as to optimize outcomes for women in terms of capacity development, effective participation in decisions related to resource management and livelihood support, and the distribution of benefits, based on gender analyses and the collection and application of their local knowledge.
