La investigación-acción de equidad y REDD+ realizada en Perú apuntó a responder las siguientes preguntas:1. Qué significa «equidad» y cómo se relaciona con las iniciativas de conservación y manejo sostenible de los bosques vinculadas al cambio climático, como REDD+?; 2. ¿Cómo se aborda la equidad en los procesos de las iniciativas de conservación y manejo sostenible de los bosques relacionadas con el cambio climático, como REDD+? 3.

This report summarises the findings of a study, conducted between 2001 and 2002, which aimed to test the effectiveness of these strategies in reconciling biodiversity conservation and socio-economic development interests, in particular through interventions that both improved livelihoods and resulted in increased support for biodiversity conservation, in terms of the attitudes and behaviours of local communities.

Poverty has become the central concern for development agencies, and because many of the areas that are most important for conserving biodiversity are occupied by poor people, or have poor people living around them, the relationship between poverty and protected areas can no longer be ignored. It is a complex one, but this book presents a balanced perspective on how protected areas relate to poverty, in both positive and negative ways.
