 The Latin American and Caribbean Environmental Funds Network (RedLAC) was formally established in 1999. Its mission is to set up an effective system of learning, strengthening, training, and cooperation through a Network of Environmental Funds aimed at contributing to the conservation and sustainable use of natural resources in Latin America and the Caribbean. The Environmental Funds of RedLAC have financed more than three thousand projects regionally in benefit of conservation and sustainable development. Together they have an annual operational budget of more than 70 million dollars for conservation activities in the region. |

RedLAC signed a contract, through its member the Brazilian Biodiversity Fund (Funbio), with the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, which is financing a monitoring system to track information about public and private investments in the Andes-Amazon region.
This initiative is a partnership between ten funds from RedLAC that support projects in the region. They will feed the database with information of their own and from other players.
The first version of the system should be launched at the end of 2008, to be used and evaluated first by environmental funds. |
