NATIONAL REDD+ READINESS IN MALAYSIA PROJECT
Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) is a mechanism created under United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change (UNFCCC) to provide incentive for developing countries to protect, better manage and wisely use their
forest resources, thus contributing to the global fight against climate change.
The National REDD+ Readiness in Malaysia is a joint project implemented by UNDP and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment aims at developing a national
framework that includes
i. the policy, legal and institutional components for REDD+; Ii. exploring and providing recommendations on
sustainable financing mechanism for REDD+ implementation, and iii. improving capacity and stakeholder participation in REDD+
management.
These outputs will be essential in the formulation of the National REDD+ Strategy, which will aim at enhancing conservation
of natural forest and reduce forest degradation.
