Taking stock of REDD+: Past, present and future GLF 2015

Watch this Discussion Forum on the second day of the Global Landscapes Forum 2015, in Paris, France alongside COP21. Underway for almost a decade, REDD+ still has not yet reached the potential originally envisioned. This notwithstanding, it remains a leading policy and technical option for mitigating climate change within and beyond the forest sector. Building on years of research, practical, and policy experience, the speakers in this session take stock of the past, present, and future of REDD+.

  • Arild Angelsen, Professor of Economics, Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU)
