REDD+ - Way forward for Indonesia Showing leadership in nested approaches to REDD+- RAD-RNK and RAD-RNK. Provincial Strategy and Planning on REDD+ Implementation (Strategi dan Rencana Aksi Propinsi –SRAP). Bringing in more peatland areas through HKM (Village forest) mechanisms would help more high value forest areas come under protected areas and generate local emission reduction and multiple benefits. Improving cross-sectoral actions to Readiness speed and effectiveness (would help break path dependency)

1. REDD+ Readiness across countries:
time for reconsideration

Land and forest governance at multiple levels in supporting climate change mitigation: lessons
learned from the tropics

2. Minang et al., 2014

3. The problem
• More than 75 countries
engaged in some kind
of REDD Readiness
• Attracting upto USD 7.2
Billion of investments
committed to
supporting REDD+
including Readiness in
large part (Creed and
Nakhooda 2011)
• YET LITTLE EXISTS IN
TERMS OF COMPARING
READINESS ACROSS
COUNTIRES IN AN
OBJECTIVE WAY
• HENCE LEARNING SO FAR
LARGELY ANECDOTAL

4. REDD+ READINESS PHASED
APPROACH
ELEMENTS FROM CANCUN AGREEMENTS- PARA 70 -
73 DECISION 1/CP16

5. REDD Readiness comparison framework
Minang et al., 2014

6. How about multilevel governance and
land in REDD+ Readiness?

7. Are Agricultural drivers of
deforestation being considered?

8. Selected countries fit along forest transition

9. Results
Minang et al., 2014

10. The Indonesia Paper

11. Some notes on results
• Most countries scored really well on process indicators like
R-PIN, R-PP and REDD Strategy- Thanks to FCPF & UN-
REDD Support
• Indonesia is the only country that had a full-fledged REDD
Policy and also linked REDD+ to a wider economic strategy.
Policy, legal & institutional frameworks were patchy for the
Peru, Cameroon and Vietnam
• Vietnam stands out in the development of a benefit sharing
framework
• Most countries score poorly on benefit sharing, MRV and
audit and financing (most financing still external)

12. Way forward for Indonesia?
• Showing leadership in nested approaches to REDD+-
RAD-RNK and RAD-RNK. Provincial Strategy and Planning
on REDD+ Implementation (Strategi dan Rencana Aksi
Propinsi –SRAP).
• Bringing in more peatland areas through HKM (Village
forest) mechanisms would help more high value forest
areas come under protected areas and generate local
emission reduction and multiple benefits.
• Improving cross-sectoral actions to Readiness speed and
effectiveness (would help break path dependency)
