2. Slide 2 Afternoon Agenda 2– 4.30 1.Why we are here 2.Emerging UK govt narratives, ICF, programmes 3.Emerging research/evidence challenges (vfm results, OUR results!) 4.Next steps in bridging gaps & working together

3. Slide 3 Why we are here Regular and effective working relationship between research, policy and practice Expectations Key gaps Mutual priorities Ways of working

4. Slide 4 UK’s International Climate Fund £2.9 billion ICF <20% to UK’s international forestry and climate initiative

5. Slide 5 The situation analysis Increasing pressure on forests Convergence in food, fuel, fibre markets Progress in tackling illegal logging Clear & secure rights key to reducing deforestation/ degradation Emerging market investors increasingly shape land and resource use with opportunities for small forest enterprises

6. Slide 6 UK government thinking Triple goals –Poverty, climate change, biodiversity Forest governance is a prerequisite for meeting the triple goals In and beyond forests Expand current work to other drivers: Illegal logging + other commodities Promoting public-private investment, green growth, Approaches underpinned by robust evidence; better knowledge uptake

8. Slide 8 3 lines of work under ICF Forestry Pillar 1.New 10 year forest governance markets and climate programme supporting governance and market reforms that reduce the illegal use of forest resources and benefit poor people in 10 countries 2.Under design - Promotion of forestry & land use investments for REDD+ 3.Uptake of knowledge and tools Nepal MSFP; Indonesia CCP

13. Slide 13 Investing in better forestry and land use management UK REDD+ PWC report Targeted bilateral support to complement multilateral actions Tapping private sector potential A focus on countries with potential to make progress on REDD+ Continued support for better forest governance

14. Slide 14 Investing in? Agricultural drivers of deforestation? Degraded lands? Small and medium enterprises? Matching the right capital to the right investment opportunities – Modality?

15. Slide 15

16. Slide 16 Knowledge Uptake: Gaps Plethora, diversity of fragmented evidence & case studies; difficult for FL P&Ps to navigate Lack of aggregated & comparable evidence, systematically gathered Flows of international forestry project finance to specific geographic footprints; dispersed smaller, shorter projects QUERY – More limited finance to research& knowledge uptake Links between hard/soft; embodied/disembodied
