Analysis of Contributions on Values and Valuation Methods by ILK experts and holders Code: VA_3.6_Ch3 DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4404612 Versioning:05 (04.26.2022) Description: This review corresponds to the IPBES Values assessment. The methodology explained in this report responds to the mandate of Ch. 3 that will assess different valuation methodologies and approaches, including (a) biophysical, social and cultural, economic, health, and holistic (including indigenous and local community-based) and (b) approaches to the integration and bridging of different types of values.

We analysed these contributions using Qualitative Analysis tools. The results will be used to nourish different sections of the chapter
