IETA REDD+ UNFCCC Submission on modalities of REDD+ Based Activities

Designing and implementing a new mechanism for financing REDD+ contains very many importantdecisions and elements that require careful deliberation among all stakeholders. Previousexperiences related to forest carbon, such as the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and JointImplementation (JI) mechanisms can provide important lessons to take away during the design of anew mechanism for REDD+. IETA has drawn upon its knowledge of incentivizing financing ofemissions reductions to inform this submission of our thoughts and recommendations.
