Perspectives on REDD+

Perspectives on REDD+

Abstract:

At the UN-REDD Programme's joint side event at COP16 on 2 December, 2010, the Programme launched its new publication entitled, "Perspectives on REDD+".

In this concise 12-page publication, the UN-REDD Programme explores some of the most difficult questions facing REDD+ efforts in three articles that look at the challenges around the application of FPIC in stakeholder engagement for REDD+; the multiple ecosystem-based benefits of REDD+ beyond carbon; and MRV and monitoring for REDD+. Outside of the CEB joint side event on 2 December, the publication will also be available in Cancun on USB keys at Forest Day 4, at FAO, UNDP and UNEP booths at COP16, and on the UN-REDD Programme website and at events throughout 2011. The UN-REDD Programme invites readers to engage, disagree, and share their own perspectives on these key issues as we move ahead with supporting countries to achieve REDD+ readiness in 2011 and beyond.
