Subject: Making REDD+ work for communities and forests | New case study from IIED published today
Dear Forest-L subscriber
We are pleased to let you know about a new IIED publication that we launched today:
In this issue of Gatekeeper read how the Mpingo Conservation and Development Initiative (MCDI) in south eastern Tanzania successfully involved communities in participatory forest management, Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) certification and REDD+. Steve Ball and Jasper Makala offer their experience and share three lessons: why you should start with quick and dirty calculations on what drives deforestation; why you need to design ‘backwards’ from REDD+ market requirements; and how you can deal with some of the challenges of introducing to communities the commercial element (carbon contracts) necessary for REDD+.
This is number 155 in the long-standing Gatekeeper series. It marks a relaunch of the publication, not only in terms of design but also in content and style. Gatekeeper will now include case studies from across IIED’s research: natural resource management, sustainable markets, climate change and human settlements.
Find out more and download here: http://www.iied.org/making-redd-work-for-communities-forests-three-shared-lessons-for-project-designers
If you have any feedback you would like to share on the new content and style please do let me know.
Best wishes
