Economic development is and has been too often carried out at the expense of natural resources. In a context of global changes (6th biodiversity crisis, climate change, peak oil and energy crisis, unprecedented rise in world population, etc.), our current destructive development practices are leading us quickly and collectively to the brink.
To help change the dominant development paradigm, SalvaTerra has been providing tailor-made support and advice since 2012 to accompany and implement rural development projects - mainly in the countries of the South (Africa, Latin America and South-East Asia) but also in the countries of the North - that reconcile the sustainable management of terrestrial ecosystems and wealth creation for local populations (agricultural products, timber and non-timber forest products etc.).
Rural populations in the South are often in a state of severe deprivation, which only worsens as the surrounding 'natural capital' deteriorates. Faced with this situation, we approach our work with pragmatism and passion, adapting to the national context and the problem at hand and, above all, working with a results-oriented approach.

The tasks were carried out in accordance with the terms of the contract, including the agreed results and the adherence to the agreed deadlines. My organization is satisfied with their performance.

La finance climat et les marchés carbone occupent aujourd’hui une place centrale dans les stratégies de lutte contre le changement climatique. Pour les pays forestiers, les territoires côtiers ou les acteurs de la gestion durable des terres, ils représentent une opportunité majeure de mobiliser des financements additionnels, à condition de s’appuyer sur des cadres solides et crédibles.
Les projets carbone et climat - qu’ils concernent la REDD+, les mangroves (« carbone bleu ») ou l’agriculture - nécessitent une expertise technique pointue, une compréhension fine des standards internationaux et une bonne intégration dans les politiques publiques nationales.

Face à la multiplication des enjeux climatiques, environnementaux et socio-économiques, de nombreux acteurs portent aujourd’hui des idées de projets ambitieuses. Pourtant, passer d'une intention stratégique à un projet financé et mis en œuvre est loin d’être aisé.
Les études de faisabilité et les formulations de projets constituent une étape clé pour transformer une idée, un diagnostic territorial ou sectoriel, en un projet solide, cohérent et aligné avec les standards internationaux des bailleurs de fonds.
