Welcome to the Plan Vivo website.

Plan Vivo is a System for developing community-based payments for ecosystem services (PES) projects and programmes, with an emphasis on building capacity, long-term carbon benefits, diversifying livelihoods and protecting biodiversity.

Plan Vivo puts people at the heart of the solution.

Our mission is to empower communities to take control of their resources.

Plan Vivo projects are independently assessed and generate Plan Vivo Certificates, representing long-term carbon benefits (VERs), conservation of ecosystems and poverty reduction.
