This paper outlines how the design of REDD could influence its poverty implications and the key requirements for ensuring that REDD works for the poor. It summarises the findings of a much longer analysis recently prepared on behalf of the PEP, entitled Making REDD Work for the Poor.
Includes bibliographic references. Based on the full report Making REDD Work for the Poor (Peskett et al., 2008) (http://www.iucn.org/dbtw-wpd/edocs/2008-056.pdf).
