Unlocking sustainable solutions for effective REDD+ Results Based Financing in Africa

AFF and the UN-REDD Programme are co-organizing an innovative four-week long Community of Practice (CoP) approach, integrating both web-based discussion and a series of webinars on “Unlocking sustainable solutions for effective REDD+ Result Based finance in Africa.” The CoP will be held virtually via Howspace, a UN-REDD Academy platform for learning and knowledge sharing from 15th April to 3rd May 2024.

The aim of the Community of Practice is to catalyze a good understanding of REDD+ finance types and sources, as well as a better knowledge of the result-based financing architecture including carbon markets and associated standards, Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, other financial instruments supporting the REDD+ process in Africa. 

The discussions will kick off with some basic information on REDD+ process, then continue with a holistic understanding of up-front finance and carbon markets mechanisms (results-based), including its critical role in facilitating well-informed decision-making processes in order to enable the region to diversify its funding sources for enhanced climate mitigation outcomes in the forestry sector.

Join us from Monday, April 15th to 3rd May from 11.00a.m-2. 00p.m Nairobi time / 08.00a.m - 11.00a.m GMT here for a live moderated, session in the chat within the 'Engage' section and from 22nd April to 3rd May 2024 for the webinars via Video Call under 'Webinar Schedule'
