  Green Gold Forestry Peru SA (GGF) works in one of the world’s most important and biodiverse habitats – Peru’s Amazon rainforest. We are driven by our belief that forest resources can be managed truly sustainably, and we are applying innovative new business models that both help local people thrive and protect Peru’s remarkable fauna and flora for posterity. GGF is one of Peru’s largest forest concession holders with 254,000hectares under management. We believe that the active engagement of forest communities is key to achieving our conservation goals – and that the best way to protect nature is to join forces with local people and help them prosper through sustainable enterprise. Our partners include leading NGOs as well as our neighbor communities in Peru’s Loreto region. We encourage research and seek to share learnings in the hope that others will follow GGF in caring for the forest and supporting new business ideas that bring prosperity to people of the Amazon. Green Gold Forestry Peru SA would like to thank the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Show less

  • Nov 2007 - Present

  At Eco System Services Limited (ESS) we draw upon our extensive experience in capital markets and environmental investment to develop workable business models for large-scale sustainable land-use projects. Our focus is in emerging economies, with a particular interest in tropical forest nations. We believe that the key to protecting the natural capital and eco-system services of forests, wetlands, and other habitats lies in fostering sustainable economic opportunities in regions where degradation is occurring. Unless conservation strategies are seen to deliver higher living standards they are likely to fail in the long-term. In practice this will require investment in areas such as renewable energy, planted forests, sustainable forest management, and improved agriculture. www.ecosystemservices.co.uk Show less
