    Partnering to protect the Amazon
    FAO and partners set example for regional collaboration
    2019

    The FAO-led Integration of Amazon Protected Areas (IAPA) project marks the first time that an EC‑funded intervention in Regional Latin America and the Caribbean has utilized FAO’s Operational Partners Implementation Modality (OPIM). Through OPIM, FAO has been able to make the best use of expertise available on the ground, strengthen national and local ownership of interventions and increase the sustainability of results. Close collaboration on the ground – including numerous in person meetings – between FAO and its Operational Partners - the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) - proved to be a key factor in the success of the project. Early video conferences helped to ensure clarity of both FAO and EC requirements. Site visits from FAO to Operational Partner offices gave the Organization invaluable knowledge of the partners’ accounting systems and controls. All parties were actively contributing to the strategic and operational development of their respective organization’s programmes. Importantly, the lessons learned by Operational Partners throughout this process will continue to benefit their operations in future interactions with the EC and other donors.
