Ecosystem services economic valuation (ESV) is often presented as an effective tool for decision-makers to achieve sustainable development objectives. Yet social processes leading to decisions call for a pragmatic, demand-driven — as opposed to supply-driven – approach to ensure ESV are actually used and make a difference. Based on an overview of ESV conducted in the Pacific island region and beyond, this paper builds on a two-fold diagnosis: (i) Experience from the Pacific and elsewhere shows both growing interest for ESV in support of island conservation and climate change resilience, and growing concern over the lack of use of such valuations when they are conducted; and (ii) Experience so far has been based on what economists have to offer rather than based on stakeholders’ needs. This paper presents lessons learnt from a five-year coastal resilience project which advocated and put to the test a demand-driven approach to ESV in several Pacific island countries and territories.

以需求为导向的生态系统服务经济估值方法:太平洋岛国和地区的经验教训

生态系统服务经济估值(ESV)通常作为决策者实现可持续发展目标的有效工具。然而,导致决策的社会流程要求采取务实的,以需求为导向(而不是供应为导向)的方法,以确保ESV得以实际使用并发挥作用。基于在太平洋岛屿地区及其他地区进行的ESV概述,本文基于以下两个方面的诊断:(i)太平洋和其他地区的经验表明,ESV对支持岛屿保护和气候变化适应力的兴趣日益浓厚,越来越担心在进行这种评估时不使用这种评估;(ii)迄今为止的经验是基于经济学家所提供的内容,而不是基于利益相关者的需求。
