7. Why use REDD+SES in Acre State? • Government Commitment: Conciliation between development and conservation, • The SISA and its programs such as IES Carbon Program, are instruments to achieve this goal, • REDD+ SES: • instrument to demonstrate and communicate the impacts and results of the SISA • bring the main points to pay attention regarding to safeguards and needs for regulation • instrument of the Councils and the Commission for Monitoring and Validation to develop their work

9. Interpretation of Indicators: Capacity building process What we really wants to measure? How we can understand indicators? • Proposal to submit to the SISA Validation and Monitoring Committee • SISA Validation and Monitoring Committee has the responsibility to approve the regulation of SISA and of the IES Carbon Program as defined by the Law • Responsibility to approve the indicators • - Public Consultation • - Final approval by the SISA Validation and Monitoring Committee

10. Challenges and Opportunities • How to perpetuate the public policies: New Government, new governor • The process of public consultation without basic knowledge about payment for environmental services, RED? REDD?? REDD+??? Carbon???? Reversals????? Leakage?????????. • Design norms which attend the rights and demands to implement REDD activities with successes. • Mecanism to guarantee the governance and the continuity of policies: Capacity Building for civil society and governments • REDD+ SES and indicator development process can serve to strengthen the devolpment of norms and regulation to govern PES Programmes
