UNDP Support to Suriname R-PP • UNDP supported the government to mobilize resources to further develop the R-PP and stakeholder engagement (Guyana Shield Facility, UNDP Suriname, UN-REDD) • R-PP has been significantly improved in the last 6 months • UNDP concurs with TAP assessment

Issues that have been raised UNDP notes that stakeholder concerns have been raised, including the need to further: – Ensure the R- PP reflects the government’s commitment to implementing the Saramaka judgment – Improve and clarify mechanisms for inclusive participation in the design of the R-PP (and eventual implementation of the associated project); including channels for identifying representatives – Strengthen existing or identify alternative mechanisms for addressing grievances in line with FCPF Guidelines on Grievance (independent, legitimate, transparent etc.)

Process going forward • UNDP will support further discussion on how to address remaining issues in Contact Group and through, e.g. Resolution Annex • UNDP will support Suriname to: o Revise R-PP in accordance with Resolution and develop a project document through an inclusive process o Meet UNDP and Common Approach standards (including stakeholder engagement, SESA, FPIC, grievance)
