New IIED Briefing: Carbon righteousness: how to lever pro-poor benefits from REDD+

From: Danny Rozario

Dear Colleagues,

 

The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) is proud to announce our latest policy briefing.

 

Carbon righteousness: how to lever pro-poor benefits from REDD+

 

This briefing discusses the opportunities and challenges involved in the creation of a new form of private property that can be bought and sold in domestic and international markets — the 'carbon right'. It looks at how equity and fairness can be built into this new commodity so that carbon trading schemes and REDD+ projects support the rural poor who rarely hold formal land ownership or tenure rights but are key players in putting sustainable forest management into practice on the ground.
