Abstract:
Schemes for economic incentives (‘payments’) for watershed services are emerging across Indonesia. In four of them, we applied a rapid hydrological appraisal method and can now reflect on the findings and lessons we have learned.
Two of the study areas—in Singkarak, West Sumatra province, and Sumberjaya, Lampung province—were ‘action research’ sites of the Rewards for, Use of, and Shared Investment in Pro-poor Environmental Services (RUPES Phase 2) project coordinated by the World Agroforestry Centre Southeast Asia in collaboration with local NGOs and governments. The other two sites—in Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan; and Talau, East Nusa Tenggara—were coordinated by the World Wildlife Fund Indonesia in collaboration with the consortium of Equitable Payment for Watershed Services of CARE International and the International Institute for Environment and Development.
