Decision Support Tool: Integrated REDD+ accounting frameworks - Nested national approaches

Summary

The objective of this report is to guide countries on the design and establishment of national-level REDD+ accounting frameworks with emphasis on the integration of subnational and project-level approaches and the implementation of nested approaches under the national REDD+ framework, i.e. multiple level carbon accounting and incentive allocation. The questions presented provide information to help decide: 

(i) How the national REDD+ accounting framework will be structured

(ii) What decisions need to be made to integrate subnational and project level activities into a national level REDD+ accounting framework

(iii) How and at what levels should incentives be distributed

(iv) What procedural decisions need to be made and by whom.
