CIFOR · Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) eBooks · 2012
CIFOR is implementing a research and knowledge-sharing strategy on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+).The objective of the strategy is to provide REDD+ policymakers and practitioner communities with the information, analysis and tools they need to ensure effective and efficient reduction of carbon emissions with equitable impacts and co-benefits -including poverty reduction, protection of local livelihoods, rights and tenure, and enhancement of non-carbon ecosystem services.We call this the 3E+ framework, and it was elaborated upon in the previous book 'Realising REDD+' (Angelsen et al. 2009).The strategy is being implemented through three research components: 1.National REDD+ initiatives 2. Subnational projects 3. Monitoring and reference levels DonorsWe gratefully acknowledge the financial support from the governments of Australia, Finland, Norway
