Benefit sharing in REDD+: Exploring the implications for poor and vulnerable people

This paper looks systematically at how benefit sharing can be understood in the context of national REDD+ systems, and the possible implications of different benefit sharing arrangements. The paper addresses three main questions: What does benefit sharing mean in the context of REDD+? What are the options for establishing benefit sharing systems in different REDD+ approaches? What are the implications of different benefit sharing arrangements for poor people?
