A recent study from Conservation Strategy Fund (CSF) demonstrates the positive impact of NPAs on the Peruvian economy, and highlights how an investment in these services could mean a return of nearly 900% in economic value to Peru. This economic analysis indicates that strategic investments in these spaces will conserve natural heritage, and also generate employment and economic growth.

The natural protected areas (NPAs) are home to much of Peru's megadiversity. Ensuring their sustainability and efficient management is not only essential for the conservation of the country's flora and fauna but also represents a key opportunity for economic development and the well-being of local communities. The Conservation Strategy Fund (CSF) study reinforces this idea, highlighting the potential positive impact of NPAs on the Peruvian economy. Its findings indicate that investment in these strategic spaces, in addition to conserving natural heritage, also generates employment and economic growth.

CSF Peru visited the facilities of the National Forest and Wildlife Service (SERFOR) to discuss the potential of building a common agenda where CSF's experience contributes with information that values ​​the forest and wildlife heritage, estimates the cost of the loss of ecosystem services and its socio-environmental impact on the country. The meeting was attended by the Executive Director of SERFOR, Erasmo Otárola, officials of the entity and Augusto Mulanovich Diez-Canseco, director of CSF Peru.
