WWF Guide to Building REDD+ Strategies

Summary

This guide is designed to provide REDD+ practitioners and their local partners with the information necessary to develop national and subnational REDD+ strategies. It draws on the experiences of WWF’s international REDD+ project teams, the latest literature on REDD+ practices and emerging REDD+ best practices around the world.

It is intended for practitioners working across various elements of REDD+ as well as those focused on a particular area of REDD+, as practitioners need to have a holistic understanding of a REDD+ national or subnational strategy in order to effectively work in any part of it.

It is anticipated that through interaction and inputs from initial users of the guide, the information it contains will be developed further to support a broader range of REDD+ practitioners, including government officials, civil society organisations, indigenous peoples and local communities, international implementation agencies and the private sector.
