Displaying 2111 - 2113 of 2113Compensation payments for resource and landscape management conducive to carbon storage
General
Central America is the tropical region most severely affected by climate change worldwide. Soil degradation, forest loss and monocultures make it even more vulnerable to climate change. Regional efforts to harmonise climate protection activities and biodiversity goals have so far been unsuccessful. The project will create carbon sinks through forest landscape restoration (FLR) and establish these across the entire region. FLR is seen here as an approach that treats the entire landscape as a whole. The objective of the project is to restore forest resources in a way that is appropriate to the landscape as part of REDD+ in Central America. Therefore, in supporting measures for preserving landscapes (e.g. compensation mechanisms), the different types of use that lead to increased carbon storage must be taken into account and the various user groups (small-scale forest owners) must be involved in designing the mechanisms. The lessons learned, especially with regard to the negotiation process and the implementation of compensation mechanisms related to FLR, will be fed into the international discussion on climate change, particularly into dialogue on REDD+.
Locally appropriate mitigation actions in Indonesia (LAMA-I): strengthening district-level capacity for reduci
General
LAMA-I will support Indonesia’s global leadership in reducing land-based emissions through an integrated NAMA/REDD+ approach by strengthening capacity for local governments to combine development and spatial planning and to synergize climate-change mitigation and adaptation actions through multiple stakeholder negotiations. A recent Presidential Decree mandates all local government levels to develop plans as part of Indonesia's NAMA, but capacity to do so is unevenly distributed. Under the guidance of the National Planning and Development Agency (Bappenas), the project will improve the methods that can be used at local government level and support capacity strenghening in strategically selected districts and provinces.
