Beyond carbon payments: Understanding the co-benefits of Jurisdictional REDD+ benefit-sharing.
What can jurisdictional REDD+ benefit-sharing processes deliver beyond carbon finance?
This invitation-only workshop will bring together government representatives, Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs), practitioners, and researchers to explore the broader benefits emerging from jurisdictional REDD+ benefit-sharing processes.
The discussion will look beyond the distribution of carbon revenues to examine how these processes can strengthen governance, institutional capacity, participation, gender inclusion, and government-community relationships, while contributing to outcomes such as biodiversity conservation, wildfire resilience, sustainable forest management, and climate adaptation.
Drawing on experiences across jurisdictions, participants will identify emerging co-benefits, explore the conditions that enable or constrain them, and share practical lessons for strengthening benefit-sharing approaches.
The discussion will contribute to a joint EDF–Emergent knowledge product on the broader impacts and lessons of jurisdictional REDD+ benefit-sharing.
