Designing a National Safeguards System in Mexico

Summary

This official document summarizes the work that Mexico has done so far to design their National Safeguards Information System. 

The National Safeguards System will define how the REDD+ safeguards application will be guaranteed in Mexico, and to which activities they will be applied. It will identify the laws and institutions that are to support their implementation and reporting, and the compliance aspects of the system, which will allow for the resolution of conflicts, dealing with complaints and feedback information loops. 

The three main elements that comprise the National Safeguards System are: 1, Legal Framework; 2, Institutional Framework; and 3, Compliance Framework.
