LESSONS: BASIC CONDITIONS FOR REDD+ NEEDED o Informed population, especially forest peoples o Strong political will o Budget and efficient management o Specific transparency, consultation and participation provisions & mechanisms o Information management systems in place: organization, classification and systematized information
14
CRITICAL ISSUES o TAI laws are generic: do not address forest governance issues o FPIC and consultation processes: only in paper and not legally binding o Land tenure and carbon rights are extremely unclear o There are no comprehensive forest cadaster o Registries of REDD+ projects have no specific TAI considerations
15
SOME RECOMMENDATIONS o REDD+, forest governance and finance needs to be linked to results with transparency in budget and flows (MRV for finance) o Multi-sectorial land use planning is needed: Ecuador and Peru’s forests face increasing pressure from extractive industries
