Mekong CC-PIP: Climate Change Partnership with Indigenous Peoples

Project completed

While REDD+ strategies and action plans are currently under development in many countries of the GMS, with the support of important players, like the WB, it is urgent to find the way that local forest communities and indigenous forest peoples do not miss the chance to be on board.  Building the capacities for a partnership between indigenous communities, civil society organizations, government agencies and donors, will allow the development and implementation of rights-based, equitable and pro-poor national REDD strategies.
