The specific objectives are: (i) to license and transfer the IAIF and PROMECIF methodologies to the consulting firms; (ii) to collect primary and recent secondary data; (iii) to compute the 2004 IAIF for LAC countries; and (iv) to design, and assist in the pilot implementation of PROMECIF to improve the forest sector business investment climate (hence, the index performance) for Guatemala and Paraguay
