The FFEM and French commitments to REDD+

01/12/2011

This brochure describes the FFEM’s commitments to REDD+, the new mechanism for reducing emissions from deforestation and land degradation in developing countries, through examples of different projects. Thanks to the experience it has gained with its network of partners, the FFEM is in a position to support both the preparation of pilot REDD+ activities and the implementation phases that follow.

The collection

The "Capitalising on experience" series presents the FGEF’s strategic approach in each topic area, through brief descriptions of the pilot activities and field operations conducted with its partners. The series documents capitalisation on experiences in which the FGEF has acted as a partner for the preservation and sustainable management of the environment.
