Abstract

Complex ecological and social settings make the programme on reducing emissions through avoided deforestation, forest degradation and other forestry activities in developing countries (also known as REDD) a challenging policy to design. Research shows the advantages of a modular policy framework able to distinguish, and adequately compensate, the different outcomes of any forest carbon initiative.
