Seeing 'REDD'? Forests, climate change mitigation and the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities - May 2009 Update

This is an updated version of FPP's earlier report, prepared for the UNFCCC COP 14 (Poznan) in December 2008.

As REDD proposals and projects gather momentum to determine how developing country forests will be included in global efforts to mitigate climate change, this report analyses national, international and NGO initiatives. It identifies that to achieve effective and sustainable results, forest peoples must be involved at all levels and their rights upheld.
