REDD+ Measuring, Reporting and Verification- science solutions to policy
challenges
Zeist, Netherlands
10-12 June, 2013
Workshop Summary
Workshop report (pdf)
A multi stakeholder participatory workshop on “REDD+ MRV – science solution to
policy challenges”, hosted by the WWF Forest and Climate Initiative (www.panda.org/forestcarbon),
WWF Netherlands (www.wwf.nl)
and Wageningen University REDD@WUR network (www.redd.wur.nl)
was carried out from 10-12 June 2013 in Zeist, The Netherlands. The purpose of
this workshop was to assess the status and development of monitoring
approaches in light of the evolving REDD+ needs from different actors such as
policy makers, national REDD+ experts, from local implementers, from donors
and the private sector. The workshop involved 31 participants from scientific,
public and private stakeholders.
Evolving REDD+ monitoring requirements and challenges from each stakeholder’s
perspective were shared in presentation and discussion panels among
participants. The most important gaps were identified and led to the
development of research priorities with focus on better linking local and
national REDD+ efforts on five themes namely:
These issues were also discussed in the context
of the outcomes of UNFCCC SBSTA 38 agenda item 4 draft text that was
negotiated in parallel. The workshop output was a roadmap proposed by the
working groups on solving the key requirements specified under the five main
themes. Recommendations were made on what to do next, how to approach the
issues, when to execute actions, and who to involve in the process. The
participants took the commitment to take on the most critical tasks under the
leadership of a WWF – WU partnership. This partnership will help to bridge
dedicated research, local and national implementation, and the policy and
political level that is essential to address the objectives in comprehensive
manner. Further communications, including a detailed workshop report and
executive summary are being prepared and will be published with all
presentations and workshop documents soon at the WWF
REDD+ community.
