In June 2010 the Accra Caucus on Forests and Climate Change released case studies from a range of countries which were preparing for the UNFCCC’s programme on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+). Here we present a new set of case studies showing how the REDD+ process has been experienced on the ground.

 

While governments are still debating the form that REDD+ will take, including substantive details such as safeguards, the monitoring of results and finance for REDD+ activities, many countries are pressing ahead with “REDD+ readiness” with the support of bilateral and multilateral donors.
