GPSNR Secretariat

Organized by: GIZ Sector Projects (SV) ‘Program Sustainable Agricultural Supply Chains and Standards (SV PNAS)’ and ‘International Forest Policy (SV IFP)’ together with GPSNRAbout this Topic Talk: Using REDD+ projects to offset carbon emissions through avoided deforestation and to financially support local communities is popular but also highly debated. Especially, voluntary REDD+ projects are regularly criticized as inefficient or even greenwashing. We asked the authors of the latest critical study, "Overstated carbon emission reductions from voluntary REDD+ projects in the Brazilian Amazon", to present their findings and suggestions as a basis for discussion.Notes:Attendees who join the session via browser are reminded to indicate their names when entering the session.
