IPAM, together with partners, Conservation International, Environmental Defense Fund, Woods Hole Research Center, and The Nature Conservancy, produced four policy briefs on aspects of REDD policy.

This one is a joint position on ecological co-benefits of REDD+: we support a robust REDD+ mechanism for climate change mitigation that also protects the ecological co-benefits essential to maintaining the integrity and sustainability of tropical forest ecosystems.
