REDD+ Strategy Options

...How REDD+ fits into national policies?: main issues

• Structural governance shifts: Decentralization and enhancement of regional government roles.

• Legal and institutional reforms regarding land tenure and titling; environmental services; participation and benefit sharing mechanisms; protection of indigenous rights and community empowerment for social equity.

• Changes in land use patterns and adoption of sustainable economic activities.

• Capacity building (regarding needs in forest conservation, reference scenarios, community and indigenous people involvement, among others)

• Promotion of public and private investment in forest carbon related ventures

Reduction of the deforestation rate...How?

REDD + Strategy

3 levels of implementation.

Capacity building at all levels.

Promote public and private investments for forest conservation and carbon-related businesses.

Learn form early REDD+ initiatives.

Recently approved by the Ministries Council Presidency (PCM).

Integrates initiatives to fight against deforestation and forest degradation.

Also in areas not prioritized for REDD+ investments

National Program for Forest Conservation to climate change mitigation

Conceptual Framework for REDD+ in Peru

• National Program for Forest Conservation to CC mitigation (REDD+).

• Peru proposes to implement REDD by levels (= LOCAL, REGIONAL, NACIONAL).

• ¿Why Peru has taken this decision?

– sustained process of decentralization and reallocation of public

powers from the national government to regional governments

– Government is aware of contributions and potentials of the sub

national initiatives (= LOCAL y REGIONAL level)……also is aware of the

risks

– Government wants to promote sub national investments .

“enfoque por niveles” will allow Peru to build REDD+ from

the LOCAL to the National level
