What are ecosystem services (ES)?
the benefits from the functioning of ecosystemsprovided by natural processes/ components to satisfy human needs
(de Groot 1992)
consist of flows of materials, energy, and information from stocks to produce human welfare (Costanza et al, 1997)

ES Classification
Watershed functions water flows, water quality
Biodiversity functions conservation
Human health and landscape beauty ecotourism Carbon stocks – sequestration and storage (CSS) tree cover/forest carbon

Existing PES schemes
Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS)Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD)Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
![Page 7: Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation: The Case of the Ikalahan Forest Carbon Development](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54c1c6f74a7959884d8b456f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
PES thru VCS, REDD, CDM

Payment for CSS: CDM
Clean Development Mechanism - a flexibility mechanism under the Kyoto Protocolallows industrialized countries to implement emission reduction projects in developing countries and receive credit Certificates of Emission Reduction (CERs)/
carbon credits: 1 ton CO2 = 1 CER

Forestry (Sinks) CDM Projects
Only reforestation and afforestation projects allowedSmall-scale forestry projects eligible (< 8000 t CO2/year)Bundling of individual parcels of land allowed

What is RUPES?
“Rewarding the Upland Poor for Environmental Services they Provide (RUPES)” Phase 1: 2005 – 2008 - Local pilot projects
Aims to enhance the livelihoods and reduce the upland poverty while conserving the environmentRewards for, Use of and Shared Investment in Pro-poor Environmental Services Phase 2: 2009 – 2011 - National policy-making
and institutional support

Potentials
Area identified for forest carbon development: 900 has Rehabilitation of denuded/degraded lands 8 barangays in 2 municipalities
Strategy for carbon development: Agroforestation:
• Forest-tree plantation • Agroforestry farm development
![Page 16: Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation: The Case of the Ikalahan Forest Carbon Development](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54c1c6f74a7959884d8b456f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Potentials
Approach for carbon development: community-based DIRECT IMPLEMENTERS
• Ikalahan and Kalanguya parcel/lot owners
Project Management: PROPONENT: KEF
• Project Design• Project Field Implementation• Community organizing/Advocacy • Capacity-building

The Challenges: Can KEF do it?
Areas of concern for actualization PDD preparation (mapping, land-owner
agreement, land mgt scheme strategy, field operational arrangement)
Actual field implementation - technical and financial capacity
Project Maintenance and Carbon Monitoring - technical capacity
![Page 21: Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation: The Case of the Ikalahan Forest Carbon Development](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081414/54c1c6f74a7959884d8b456f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Yes they Can!
Kalahan has a great potential for carbon developmentWith IFAD through RUPES’ financial and technical assistance, KEF have the potential to comply the requirements to meet carbon markets. Case site study assessment result indicate
that support from RUPES project is very important.

Therefore,
IAD – wide forested areas for conservation and protection for important ESIAD potential to enter the REDD
