Climate Promise programme is supporting Agriculture, Forestry and other land Uses related interventions with a primary focus on forests to help to meet the requirements for the quantification, monitoring, reporting and verification of greenhouse gas emission reductions from Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) activities. Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities occupy a significant area that is critical to global biodiversity and ecosystems. Traditional knowledge and local knowledge systems play a key role in addressing effects of climate and thus there’s an urgent need to integrate these aspects into socio – economic and environmental policies and actions.
