This document discusses maximizing financing for jurisdictional REDD+ through accessing complementary sources of climate finance. It outlines the GCF REDD+ Results-Based Payments pilot program and potential next steps, including expanding the program to engage more countries and the private sector. The document also discusses considerations for integrating carbon market elements and accounting at subnational and national levels to leverage funding from compliance and voluntary carbon markets while meeting UNFCCC requirements.

- Same rules, procedures
and GCF tools or minimum
changes
- Priority to new countries in
other regions (Asia,Africa)
- Some rules and procedures
will be modified
- Some scorecard elements
may be adjusted (e.g.
definitions, uncertainties)
- All countries eligible
- A pipeline of proposals will
be generated
- Safeguards framework will
need to be provided
- A floor/matching price could
be offered. Upside to be
shared with host country
- Private sector could be asked
to express demand
- Voluntary participation
- Accounting at jurisdictional
scale at minimum
- Analysis of REDD+ standards
in relation to UNFCCC
requirements
- ERs retired in the country of
origin

- Should/could GCF provide a
matching price?
- How much should it be?
- Should there be eligibility criteria for
identifying off-takers?
- How the price bidding should be?
How to trigger competition to
increase the amount?
- What additionalVoluntary Carbon
Market Standards’ elements should
a country develop to be able to
access to the private sector window?
- What rules and procedures should
be in place?
- How should/could a country integrate carbon market
elements into their UNFCCC FREl/FRL and MRV?
- How to integrate lower level carbon accounting into
subnational/national?
- What features should the registry system have?
How could the private sector “window” look like?

9. SOME THOUGHTS
• The main objective is to reduce deforestation, degradation and restore
forest
• All possible sources of finance and solutions are needed to implement REDD+
• Non-market approaches must co-exist with market-based approaches
• Carbon Markets are essential to leverage private finance for REDD+
• Voluntary carbon markets can contribute to Countries’ NDCs if these are
retired in the country of origin (not exported and avoiding corresponding
adjustment)
• Double claiming doesn’t have an impact on achieving climate goals as long as
there isn’t double counting at government level
• Carbon accounting and commercial transactions can/should occur
independently (benefit sharing options)
• “Nesting” project level interventions to national/sub national FREL/FRL may
require detailed trade-off analysis.
