REDD+ in a green economy: global symposium report [1]

The UN-REDD, in collaboration with the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF), the UN Office for REDD+ Coordination in Indonesia (UNORCID), the Government of Indonesia and other partners, has released the report of the Global Symposium on REDD+ in a Green Economy. Overall, the report notes that REDD+ could catalyze progress towards a green economy, while activities to move towards a green economy may stimulate additional investments in REDD+. According to the publication, the extent of the synergy between REDD+ and a green economy will depend on country commitments and the level of ambition in transitioning towards them. The report suggests that the move to a green economy can provide increased certainty and promote private sector investments in REDD+, frame REDD+ as a development tool, and promote cross-sectoral coordination in support of both REDD+ and sustainable development.
