POSTER: Lessons About Land Tenure, Forest Governance And Redd+: Case Studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America
Substantial international investment in REDD holds promise for forest protection, but the world’s most carbon-heavy forests tend to be located in places where ownership is ill-defined or contested. If REDD investments are to be effective and fair to local forest-dependent communities, tenure issues must be addressed. Here we showcase early efforts to evaluate and clarify tenure and strengthen local forest governance.
