Introduction

Conserving Now, Preserving Future

  • The United Nations Collaborative Programme on Reducing Emissions from

Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) in Developing Countries was launched in 2008 and builds on the convening role and technical expertise of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).

  • The UN-REDD (Reducing Emission from Deforestation and Degradation)Programme

supports nationally led REDD+ processes and promotes the informed and meaningful involvement of all stakeholders, including indigenous people and other forest-dependent communities, in national and international REDD+ implementation.

Conclusion

Conserving Now, Preserving Future

  • India is playing a positive role and has taken a firm stance in favor of a comprehensive REDD+ (Reducing

Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) approach.

  • It has presented an ambitious Green India Mission Programme under its National Action Plan on Climate

Change.

  • India believes REDD needs to be seen in the broader context of REDD+, not in isolation or in a turncated

form since reduction of deforestation, and conservation and improvement of forests are two sides of the same coin, and so should be treated at par.
