## Description

This work will aim to assess the current understanding of the role of wetland ecosystem services in poverty reduction in lower and middle-income countries\. To achieve this, it will seek to fulfil the following objectives: \(1\) collect and organise available information on the flows, distribution and value of wetland ecosystem services; \(2\) combine this information with data on poverty in lower and middle countries, and interpret this evidence using the necessary technical expertise; \(3\) summarise key findings, and illustrate these with case studies, to inform wetland conservation policies and their relationship to poverty reduction; and \(4\) identify current knowledge gaps and provide a steer of where future research work is most needed\.
