Test new mechanisms to incentivize conservation of natural ecosystems outside protected areas in Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Develop frameworks for payment for ecosystem services (PES) mechanisms for three services: hydrological regulation, pollination and provisioning of non-timber forest products. Identify potential buyers and develop PES metrics. Secure commitment by district authorities to establish at least one PES mechanism, as a demonstration to inform wider policy.
