The project offers farmers a) access to information, through demonstration units and field days; b) access to technical assistance, through in-person and online training and capacity-building; c) access to rural credit, through collaborative farmer-technician partnerships, and d) financial incentives, in the form of results based financing to successful farmer-technician teams. The project is still in its implementation stage, but the innovative design and theory of change of this project offer insights into possible mechanisms for promoting forest restoration on private lands in the tropics. aCrédito Rural aDesenvolvimento Sustentável aEmissão de gases de efeito estufa aFinanciamento baseado em resultados aMeios de subsistência aPequenos agricultores1 aGOMEZ, A.
