Lessons for REDD+ from protected areas and integrated conservation and development projects (original) (raw)

Forest protected areas (PAs) could become a critically important element of • tropical forest countries' efforts to implement and benefit from REDD +. There are important similarities and overlaps between REDD • + projects and integrated conservation and development projects (ICDPs) linked to PAs. Like ICDPs, REDD + pilot and demonstration projects have generated considerable excitement and donor support, and very high expectations among stakeholders. ICDPs have generally performed poorly; although the reasons for • this are well understood, avoidable mistakes continue to be made in their design and implementation. REDD + projects should learn from these experiences.
