Land and forest governance at multiple levels in supporting climate change mitigation: lessons learned from the tropics
Indonesia Pavillion at UNFCCC COP 21December 3, 2015, Paris, France
Minang et al., 2014
The problem• More than 75
countries engaged in some kind of REDD Readiness
• Attracting upto USD 7.2 Billion of investments committed to supporting REDD+ including Readiness in large part (Creed and Nakhooda 2011)
• YET LITTLE EXISTS IN TERMS OF COMPARING READINESS ACROSS COUNTIRES IN AN OBJECTIVE WAY
• HENCE LEARNING SO
FAR LARGELY ANECDOTAL
REDD+ READINESS PHASED APPROACH
ELEMENTS FROM CANCUN AGREEMENTS- PARA 70 -73 DECISION 1/CP16
REDD Readiness comparison framework
Minang et al., 2014
How about multilevel governance and land in REDD+ Readiness?
Are Agricultural drivers of deforestation being considered?
Selected countries fit along forest transition
Results
Minang et al., 2014
The Indonesia Paper
Some notes on results• Most countries scored really well on process indicators
like R-PIN, R-PP and REDD Strategy- Thanks to FCPF & UN-REDD Support
• Indonesia is the only country that had a full-fledged REDD Policy and also linked REDD+ to a wider economic strategy. Policy, legal & institutional frameworks were patchy for the Peru, Cameroon and Vietnam
• Vietnam stands out in the development of a benefit sharing framework
• Most countries score poorly on benefit sharing, MRV and audit and financing (most financing still external)
Way forward for Indonesia?• Showing leadership in nested approaches to REDD+-
RAD-RNK and RAD-RNK. Provincial Strategy and Planning on REDD+ Implementation (Strategi dan Rencana Aksi Propinsi –SRAP).
• Bringing in more peatland areas through HKM (Village forest) mechanisms would help more high value forest areas come under protected areas and generate local emission reduction and multiple benefits.
• Improving cross-sectoral actions to Readiness speed and effectiveness (would help break path dependency)
