Amazon Vision 2020 Report

USAID Measuring Impact II (MI2); Environmental Incentives, Foundations of Success and ICF Macro, Inc.

This report describes the context, status and illustrative achievements of USAID’s biodiversity and sustainable landscape initiatives in the Amazon.

More Info

USAID developed the Amazon Vision in 2016 to be the framework unifying the Agency’s goals across the region. This Vision provides a coordinated and strategic regional response to threats facing the Amazon forest in Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru and Suriname. The Amazon Vision seeks to support a healthy and resilient forested region valued by society, promote human well-being and safeguard our global climate. The Vision describes, guides and measures USAID’s investments and conservation impact at a regional scale and includes the work of the Amazon Regional Environmental Program (AREP), the bilateral Missions and USAID/Washington projects in the Amazon.

USAID’s Amazon Vision has four overarching goals:

  1. Decrease deforestation, forest degradation and greenhouse gas emissions
  2. Foster an environmentally friendly economy
  3. Protect key landscapes and species
  4. Secure the rights, resources and health of forest-dependent communities

The purpose of this report is to describe the regional context, the current status and achievements of USAID’s biodiversity and sustainable landscape initiatives in the Amazon basin through the lens of the Amazon Vision.

This report was authored by Claire Price (Environmental Incentives) and Maina Martir (Environmental Incentives).
