Jurisdictional REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) is a framework designed to incentivize the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from deforestation and forest degradation at a broader jurisdictional scale, typically at the national or sub-national (state, provincial) level. Jurisdictional REDD+ programs (hereinafter referred to as J-REDD+ programs) refer to government-led actions aimed at reducing GHG emissions from deforestation and forest degradation at a national or subnational scale.
This guide aims to support jurisdictions (hereinafter referred to as ‘Participants’) in understanding and navigating the technical requirements of J-REDD+ standards. For Participants that have or plan to have multiple J-REDD+ programs with different J-REDD+ standards, including those transitioning from the FCPF to TREES and/or VCS JNR, this document is also intended to help them understand the differences between these standards. It will assist in identifying any challenges and opportunities in building a coherent national approach to J- REDD+.
This guide is primarily addressed to in-country stakeholders involved in the design and implementation of J-REDD+ programs, particularly, civil servants from jurisdictional governments and non-governmental stakeholders, including representatives from civil society, indigenous peoples and local communities (IP and LCs).
