The overarching objective of InnoForESt is to steer policies and businesses through the establishment of new actor alliances and payment schemes in the forestry sector demonstrating the feasibility of alternative income streams from forest ecosystem services not yet harnessed by traditional markets. InnoForESt has established four specific objectives to be targeted.

Objectives:

• Understanding success factors of novel policy and business models
• Synthesizing information on forest ecosystem service provision
• Upgrading, upscaling, and mainstreaming
• Provisioning of policy and business recommendations
