COP 22 REDD+ Cambodia

Scope and Scale

• The initial scope of NRS will prioritize deforestation, while building capacity to address forest degradation in a subsequent iteration.

• Cambodia will implement REDD+ at the national scale followed RBF of the UNFCCC.

Milestone and Results

The first phase (2017-2021): Prepare and implement the REDD+ action plan, NFMS and mobilize non-results-based investments, implement the prioritized REDD+ PAMs.The second phase (2021-2026): Operationalize a results-based mechanism

“Cambodia aims to halve its deforestation rate by 2026 compared to the deforestation rate during the period 2010-2014”
