2015 – special here for
people and our planet
17 SDGs – universal
goals (Leave no one
behind)
Inclusive development for
all
Delivering on the targets
is crucial
Climate change commitments should
include:
• Reduce emissions ‘to stay safe’
• Drive the demand for reduced emissions
in developing countries
• International and domestic demand
• Sustainable development path – cleaner
energy, industry and sustainable land
use
• Financing – reaching where change
can happen

Engaging men and women in REDD+ businesses: effectively addressing the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation
Objectives – questions
we will be discussing
• How REDD+ is
unfolding at national
and subnational level
• How will strategy
options for REDD+
affect men and
women
• Setting the baseline –
do we really know
how? Can we do it in
a cost effective way?
• Is testing REDD+
delivering the expected
results? Can
intervention be scaled?
Where will the money
come from?
• Closing the finance gap
and greening the supply
chains –is private sector
living to expectations
and commitments?

Research questions
• How do men and women respond to
policies as drivers of change in land use
and forest cover ?
• What do men and women gain from the
current land uses?
• Change in land use practices requires
incentives or performance based payment
mechanism – what are the men and
women’s preferences to different
incentives and benefits of sustainable
environment and land uses?

How will men and women be
affected by the REDD+
strategy options?
What are the trade-offs between income
and carbon benefits?
What are the potential net gains (for men
and women) from adoption of action that
will mitigate impacts of environmental and

Private sector REDD+
• Who, why, what, where, scale, investments,
rights and benefit sharing
• Africa, Asia and Latin America
• Case studies of private sector REDD+ –
drivers, actors, rights and benefit sharing
• DRC, Mozambique and Tanzania
• Offsetting vs insetting – how is private sector
integrating zero deforestation commitments?
• Ghana and Brazil
