Inequality in Latin America has declined significantly since 2000. This decline is widespread across countries with high and low growth, left- and non-left governments, and commodity exporters and importers. The decline is largely due to falling inequality in hourly wages, more progressive transfers, and lower dependency ratios. Cash transfers have significantly reduced poverty in some countries but have small effects in others that spend little on such programs. While fiscal policy is redistributive in the region, some countries like Mexico redistribute less than peers through their tax and transfer systems.
A pan-tropical assessment of REDD+ socioeconomic impacts on smallholdersCIFOR-ICRAF
Reducing carbon emissions through avoided deforestation and forest degradation and enhancement of carbon stocks (REDD+) seeks to compensate smallholder farmers for avoided emissions from forests, and thus provide a solution for climate change mitigation while sustaining rural livelihoods. A key element in the objectives and integrity of REDD+ is that compensation must be fair and equitable among stakeholders. After several years of experience with subnational REDD+, it remains unclear to what extent livelihoods are protected or even improved, in a manner that is equitable within villages and communities. For this paper, we draw on village and household-level surveys from 17 sites, 129 villages, and nearly 4,000 households to examine changes in income over time (before and after REDD+) for different wealth groups, and examine how REDD+ impacts, if any, are distributed.
