Les rôles des Fonds Environnementaux dans la REDD+

REDD stands for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation. Based on the concept adopted by the UN Convention on Climate Change, it is a mechanism that provides for the compensation of countries that reduce their greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation or forest degradation.

After the creation of this concept, the Convention added to its definition the activities of conservation, sustainable forest management, and increased carbon stocks in developing countries. These components gave rise to REDD+ or REDD plus.
