Definition Green Growth
GG aims to foster economic growth and development, while ensuring that natural assets are used sustainably, and continue to provide the resources and environmental services on which the growth and well-being rely. OECD (2011), “Towards Green Growth:
Monitoring Progress - OECD Indicators”, OECD, Paris
GG is growth that is efficient in its use of natural resources, that it minimises pollution and environmental impacts, resilient because it accounts for natural hazards

Definition Green Economy
Towards a Green Economy
A system of economic activities related to
the production, distribution and consumption
of goods and services that improve the well-
being in the long term, while not exposing
future generations to social risks and
ecological scarcities

Payments for ecosystem services (PES) compensate individuals or communities whose land use or other management decisions that affect resources on providing the ecosystem services for the additional costs of providing these services.
Strategy Response: Payments for ecosystem services (PES)
Rangelands in Jordan: Seek possible additional sources of funding for local communities for range management through:
•global PES with respect to carbon capture (or “sequestration”) – either through the “Kyoto Protocol” or through voluntary, pilot markets – and other global common goods. •national PES by rationalizing assistance and payments to land users (mainly Bedouin communities) under various public programs. •considering payments part of the Climate
Change agenda. IFAD Jordan National Program for Rangeland Rehabilitation and Development - Phase I

Strategy Response: Land tenure rules
IFAD Land Tenure Security: Rights for natural resources utilisation: Rangeland projects may need to clarify the land-tenure system and rights to resources. • recognizing and documenting group rights to rangelands and grazing lands, forests, artisanal and fishing waters • recognizing and documenting smallholder farmers’ land and water rights in irrigation schemes • strengthening women’s secure access to land • using geographic information systems to map land and natural resource rights, use and management • identifying best practices in securing these rights through business partnerships between smallholder farmers and investors
To improve access to land for the poor (especially women, minorities and other disadvantaged groups) who wish to practice agriculture.

access to finance is a major constraint to innovation in business, which is inherently risky
A venture capital market operating effectively is: -facilitating the access to debt financing (which is the main source of innovation) and issue of shares; -planning risk sharing with the private sector

Conclusions
Countries should continue their efforts to manage natural resources in a sustainable manner.
Price instruments (pricing et al.), supplemented by regulations or subsidies have encouraged green growth.
The main challenge to foster GE is to coordinate policies and to develop indicators and tools for monitoring the progress of implementation.
Innovation is essential to foster green growth
