dc.descriptionThe Partnership for Action on Green Economy and related initiatives currently contribute to the shift of national economic structures in over 22 countries towards clean technologies, resource-efficient infrastructure, green skilled labour, good governance and well-functioning ecosystems. The latter has been a crucial aspect of green economy work. Our ecological infrastructure provides enormous benefit to the economy beyond direct contribution through green industries. Early on, at the G8 meeting in 2007, the Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) initiative was born with the purpose of informing economic and social policy on the hidden values of ecosystems. More recently, the ProEcoServ project has demonstrated almost $1 billion worth of ecosystem services in just four localities across four countries.
