Develop a payment for environmental services (PES) scheme for drinking water and irrigation to support watershed conservation in the Loma Quita Espuela and Loma Guaconejo key biodiversity areas in the Dominican Republic. Information on the economic value of water will be used to design and obtain agreement on a PES scheme involving the country's water authority, environment ministry, and local civil society groups. Furthermore, sustainability will be fostered by building the capacity of key stakeholders.
