This presentation is a compilation of four that were given on 30 November 2011 at an official UNFCCC COP17 side-event organised by CIFOR: 'How is REDD+ unfolding on the ground?'. The event discussed early insights on the capability of REDD+ projects to deliver on their goal of sequestering forest carbon while providing a range of co-benefits. The information presented draws mainly on findings of CIFOR's Global Comparative Study on REDD+, and covers the status and challenges of REDD+ projects on the ground;
challenges encountered in establishing REDD+ in Africa;
the policy and economic context in which REDD+ projects is unfolding; and
the status of monitoring, reporting and verification in setting up REDD+.

The purpose of this research is to describe how local wisdom influencing the indigenous people behavior to sustain the forest resources, what makes local wisdom able to influencing indigenous people to sustain the forest resources and what does the indigenous people in East Kalimantan province needs in order make them continue to conserve forest resources as an effort to maximize their strategic role in sustainable forest management. Based on the research result of the data shown that local wisdom can influence the behavior of indigenous people because for them, forests are the storehouses of life, the nature damage could resulting negative consequences for the people themselves. The local wisdom form is customary law and, has forcing characteristic, which is sanctions received in case of violation, so its able to makes them behaving to conserve the forest resources. Then, the indigenous people needs fully support from various parties, especially from the local governments such as infrastructure, in order to make them keep continue to conserve the forest resources

Session 26. International to local forest governance: taking stock of political theories, methodologies and research findings
Organizers: Lukas Giessen (University of Goettingen, Germany), Bas Arts (Wageningen University, Netherlands), Florian Kraxner (International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, Austria) & Constance McDermott (University of Oxford, UK)
This session aims at taking stock of innovative theoretical, methodological and empirical achievements in forest governance research, from the local to the global level.
Abstract. A Model Forest is a landscape-level approach focused on people working together voluntarily in partnership towards a common vision of the human sustainable development of a large territory in which forest ecosystems play an important role. In the Ibero-American region, there are currently 29 Model Forests in 15 countries, which means that the approach is having a potential impact on the management of over 30 million hectares and on more than 6 million people. The emphasis is usually placed on environmental and economic benefits, whereas this research examines the main social and political impacts which emerge from the analysis of the reports submitted by the Model Forests to the regional network secretariat during the last decade and the data collected through interviews and monitoring activities. The study indicates that Model Forests constitute effective platforms for the application of international agreements, public policies and State programs at the local level, and that they are able to influence decision-makers through advocacy. The paper reviews the success stories of several Model Forests in this regard. Finally, even though the Model Forests process is still at its early stages, the study shows how it can drive long-term sustainability and social change in the communities.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

9. Results
Combined photovoice and
walking interviews
Communities still use local knowledge to manage
natural resources
External knowledges’ shared for helping communities
are local practices that have been already existed for
decades, e.g., manure practice
Participants see external actors as having knowledge that can help
them facing current challenges because the "they know better."
At village and household level, NRM decision
are mainly taken by headman and males
Focus group
discussion
Communities recall local
knowledge was the main
knowledge to manage the
landscape in the past
Communities foresee less available
land and the disappearance of local
knowledge in the future
10. Discussion
Local communities are hybridizing knowledge systems, while challenging and
negotiating new environmental and social realities
The loss of local knowledge may be overlooked during the integration
and collaboration process
The importance of considering how local knowledge is integrated into landscape
management fits into the broader debate on decolonising knowledge
11. Conclusion
Better understand the role of locally-embedded knowledge and which local
practices contribute to sustainable natural resource management
More effective collaboration partnerships should be developed amongst
community, government, and NGOs in the area
Development of evidence-based policy that incorporates local knowledge and ensures
local voices are properly integrated within decision-making processes
ILA can only provide a fertile ground for developing more equitable, ethical, and
collaborative processes, if addressing issues of ethics and power imbalances.

Editor's Notes
Good morning/afternoon! Thanks for inviting me. Today I am going to present part of my PhD research………..
And that’s what is trying to address COLANDS, the project I am part of. Colands is an initiative that is trying to operationalised ILA in three different countries with local partners. Looking at the MSPs, power dynamics and the politics of knowledge.
For today’s ppt, I decided to share with you the results of one of the activities I’ve been conducting in the field across the three communities. The main RQ I wanted to answer focus on what local practices are still in use in Kalomo by the Tonga communities in the area. How? We conducted combined….
