Not seeing the forest for the trees: The oversight of defaunation in REDD+ and global forest governance http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/not-seeing-the-forest-for-the-trees-the-oversight-of-defaunation-in-redd-and-global-forest-governance Throughout the tropics, forests are increasingly devoid of larger mammals - a condition referred to as empty forests. Large mammals and birds fill important roles for forest structure and composition and their depletion have implications for the forests carbon storage capacity. This new article by Focali-member Torsten Krause shows that effects of defaunation are ignored in REDD+, which compromises not only the forest ecosystem function, but also the objectives of the program.

Gender perspectives on REDD+ and global climate policy http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/conserving-carbon-and-gender-relations-gender-perspectives-on-redd-and-global-climate-policy The REDD+ instrument, aimed at conserving tropical forests and its stored carbon, have explicit considerations of gender sensitivity, poverty reduction and respecting local communities embedded in the program. Still, considerations of gender issues tend to be pushed to the future and to side activities specifically directed at women. In this dissertation, Lisa Westholm argues that gender must be considered as a matter of social relations of power that is relevant at all levels of policy making, in order to avoid that policies perpetuate or exacerbate existing inequalities.No publishermolundDissertationFocaliresearcherGenderGlobal Climate GovernanceGlobal REDD-instrumentsREDD2018-03-08T08:33:30ZArticleCIFOR PhD field scholarships: Evaluating Subnational REDD+ Programs http://www.focali.se/en/news/cifor-phd-field-scholarships-evaluating-subnational-redd-programs The Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) is seeking eight PhD scholars to focus on evaluating the impacts of subnational REDD+ initiatives in Brazil, Peru and Indonesia.No publishermolundCIFORDeforestationGlobal REDD-instrumentsPhDREDD2017-03-20T15:51:09ZNews ItemReport on the international REDD+ process in 2014 http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/report-on-the-international-redd-process-in-2014 Susanne von Walter gives an update on the REDD+ process.No publishermolundFocaliresearcherGlobal Climate GovernanceGlobal REDD-instrumentsInternational InstitutionsPolicyREDDREDD and Poverty2015-03-19T08:14:20ZArticleTree Crown Mapping in Managed Woodlands (Parklands) of Semi-Arid West Africa Using WorldView-2 Imagery and Geographic Object Based Image Analysis http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/tree-crown-mapping-in-managed-woodlands-parklands-of-semi-arid-west-africa-using-worldview-2-imagery-and-geographic-object-based-image-analysis Martin Karlson, Madelene Ostwald and Heather Reese published in Sensors.No publishermolundAgroforestryCarbon sequestrationFocaliresearcherForestsGlobal REDD-instruments2015-10-07T07:50:22ZArticleSide-event with Focali Researchers at the United Nations Climate Conference http://www.focali.se/en/blog/archive/side-event-with-focali-researchers-at-the-united-nations-climate-conference Focali researcher Fariborz Zelli shares his experinces from the side-event "REDD and Beyond: International and Indigenous Strategies in Forest protection" in Lima, Peru, The side-event was held in connection to the COP20 negotiations.No publishermolundBlogClimate ChangeConferenceDeforestationGlobal Climate GovernanceGlobal REDD-instrumentsPolicyREDD2017-10-18T09:53:22ZArticleREDD+ and Tenure: A Review of the Latest Developments in Research, Implementation and Public Policy Debates http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/redd-and-tenure-a-review-of-the-latest-developments-in-research-implementation-and-public-policy-debates Four Focali members co-wrote chapter in the newly published book "Forest Tenure Reform in Asia and Africa".No publishermolundDeforestationFocaliresearcherGlobal REDD-instrumentsREDD and PovertyTropical forests2014-12-17T13:52:57ZArticleREDD+ on the ground http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/redd-on-the-ground Focali researcher Eskil Mattsson co-edit new case book by CIFOR on how REDD+ work on the ground.No publishermolundDeforestationFocaliresearcherGlobal REDD-instrumentsREDDREDD and Poverty2014-12-16T09:08:57ZArticleREDD+ revisited - steady pace or passed momentum? http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/redd-revisited-steady-pace-or-passed-momentum Focali brief 2012:05 by Westholm, L., Mattsson, E., Ostwald, M.No publishermolundFocaliGlobal REDD-instrumentsREDD2012-08-29T15:54:11ZArticleRealizing REDD+: what role for Payments for Environmental Services? http://www.focali.se/en/articles/artikelarkiv/realizing-redd-what-role-for-payments-for-environmental-services Focali Brief 2012:02 by U.
