What we do
A mitigation and adaptation solution proven in 100 municipalities, that relies on world-class science and a universal philosophy to efficiently finance low-cost conservation of high value pristine rain forest and the provision of clean water and economic development for indigenous and other marginalized communities across Latin America
Who we are
Watershared is a joint venture funded by the public—local governments and donors including the European Union—private sector investors such as Swiss Re, and foundations such as Natura. Local governments, supported by CVC, ETAPA and other partners implement each program. The research upon which Watershared is based was undertaken by Harvard University and the National University of Colombia, supported by the Ecosystem Services for Poverty Alleviation Program and the UK’s Natural Environment Research Council, Innovations for Poverty Action and the Jameel Poverty Action Lab.
