Ecosystem services (ES), as the contributions of nature to people, are increasingly prominent in the research, political and business agendas. Through a collaboration between CIBIO and CBMA, this course will cover scientific, economic, and socio-political dimensions of ES through a mix of theory and hands-on sessions, and interactions with different specialists. The course is developed for students, post-doctoral researchers, and professionals. Participants will be able to:
- explore different tools and methods to evaluate and monitor ES;
- perform a valuation of the benefits and contributions from biodiversity to people;
- recognize the opportunities and risks of ES at the business-political-society interface.
