COP21: What it could mean for REDD+ (and climate change)

Ecologist William Sunderlin from the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR) explains what impact the upcoming COP21 negotiations could have on REDD+ and whether finance could continue to hamper efforts to address climate mitigation. In this interview, Sunderlin draws on research carried out across the world, captured in the book “REDD+ on the Ground†and the article “REDD+ at a critical juncture†.
