Watch this Civil Society Session on the first day of the Global Landscapes Forum 2014, in Lima, Peru, during COP20. In 2010, Peru committed to the UNFCCC in three points: zero deforestation by 2021, change in the energy matrix to reach 40 percent renewable energy and improved management of solid waste. This session shows the contrasts of the advances of voluntary commitments with international funding received to mitigate climate change.
