We are excited to announce the release of a new primer report on the UNFCCC REDD+ framework. This in-depth guide is an indispensable tool for anyone engaged in environmental policy and forest conservation. CfRN Managing Director Federica Bietta sheds light on the importance of this publication: "The REDD+ framework evolved over two decades of UNFCCC decisions – and for this reason, it’s not easily understood. The new primer report is perfect for governments, corporations, analysts, academics, and the media who are looking for a comprehensive understanding of the framework and all its elements." Key insights from the report include: ➡️ Countries reporting on national efforts to slow deforestation to UNFCCC ➡️ How UNFCCC's verification process verifies these efforts and rewards countries with emissions reductions ➡️ Development of methodology from various COP decisions ➡️ Latest guidelines on how REDD+ Results become carbon credits, called Internationally Transferable Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs), under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. In an era where reversing deforestation is more critical than ever, this primer report is an essential resource in understanding and implementing effective forest conservation and climate finance strategies. Explore this essential guide to deepen your understanding of the UNFCCC REDD+ framework and its role in global climate action: https://bit.ly/3SjE82P #ForestConservation #ClimateChangeMitigation #REDD+

Rainforests are home to over 50% of all life on Earth, harboring two-thirds of the world’s plant species and countless unique creatures. Yet, they are under threat from habitat destruction and climate change. Through the Paris Climate Agreement, developing countries are pioneering efforts to protect these critical ecosystems. Article 5 offers a groundbreaking approach, using carbon as a proxy for protecting biodiversity, providing financial incentives to slow, stop, and reverse deforestation. Join us at #COP29 for a Fireside Chat on the Importance of Rainforests for Biodiversity on Nov. 21 at 2:15 pm AST. Details: https://lnkd.in/g5_apwV3  Kevin Conrad
