How has IICA integrated NbS into its projects? By incorporating specific initiatives in nature-based solutions into projects, for example: agroforestry systems for the recovery of degraded areas. What lessons can you share about collaborating with farmers to implement NbS? That even when implemented well, with corresponding technical assistance and rural extension, farmers are courageous allies in sustainable practices. Payment for environmental services (PES) is key in this process. What examples of innovation in NbS can you share from your experience at IICA? The water producer program is an excellent example that we could detail and share. There are other very innovative initiatives in the reuse of water from the sanitation sector as an agricultural input. How are you promoting education and training in NbS among farmers? By developing and applying face-to-face and virtual training for the various initiatives, even during the COVID-19 pandemic period.
