The primer report provides a comprehensive overview for countries and corporations about the REDD+ framework, how it came into being, how it works, and how Internationally Transferable Mitigations Outcomes (ITMOs) are created for the forestry sector.

Nature-based solutions have the potential to address some of our challenges with climate, biodiversity, and ensuring a ‘just’ transition. UNFCCC REDD+ sovereign carbon credit represents such an asset, evidencing carbon sequestration and supporting entire ecosystems, and thereby allowing capital to flow where it is most needed. Read this co-written white paper by Deutsche Bank & CfRN.

The guide aims to answer the following questions:

1. Why tropical rainforests are the critical climate solution without which we cannot slow the climate emergency
2. How the UNFCCC’s REDD+ Mechanism works as a standard to measure, report, and verify emission reductions from rainforests
3. How the REDD.plus platform provides businesses and individuals with access to national emissions reductions under the REDD+ Mechanism

This guide will raise additional questions, and we invite you to contact us at info@redd.plus to continue the dialogue. We all share the common goals of preserving and protecting rainforests and working to address the climate emergency.
