Questions for the roadmap
a) Downsizing the Government and getting it out of the
way. Or should we rather talk about rightsizing?
b) What are the main misconceptions about private
investments in forests and landscapes and how to
correct them?
c) What are the three key actions to be taken governments
with their multilateral development partners: is there a
need for partnerships in this field
d) There is often talk that actually we are not lacking
financing as such, but good bankable projects. Is this
correct?
