Book excerpt: The environmental problematics have been determined at center of the analysis and intervention at the global and local level, with porpuse to solve the current deterioration of the planet. We have become aware that the nature with which we coexist is not infinite, being necessary to problematize the relationship between nature and human population. In this scenario, payment instruments for environmental services arise as an alternative that "allows the combination of the conservation of strategic zones with the development of productive activities, in such a way that access to natural resources and environmental services is not a trigger for new scenarios of social or environmental conflict "(DNP-CONPES 3886, 2017, page 18), the instruments are conceived then from the perspective of the transformation of practices, the ecological restoration, and the assessment and promotion of the actions developed by the inhabitants of rural areas towards the conservation. This research analyzes from the Livelihoods approach, how compensation schemes for environmental services affect the livelihoods of farmer families participating in the project Compensation for Water Environmental Services of the Cali River basin. The results indicate that although the actions developed by the project were not focused on generating transformations in livelihoods, they strengthened the activities and strategies developed by families in terms of learning about the territory (human capital), strengthening of institutional and local support networks (social capital), and the conservation of natural resources (natural capital) of which their livelihoods depend. On the other hand, the development of compensation schemes for water environmental services based on linking local actors enabled the organizational and social strengthening of AcuaCali; Likewise, it made it possible to consider on the potential of the compensation schemes and the institutional recognition of the conservation actions that agricultural producers carry out on a daily considering the identification and potentialization of their role in the sustainability of the territory. And finally from this perspective it is possible to evidence transformations in strategies, activities and skills that agricultural producers and their families generate at the rate of external changes, adopting new technologies or diversifying their activities towards the transformation of their products or towards services such as the tourism.
