This module of the REDD+ Academy Course Advancing on REDD+ looks at how countries can measure their REDD+ Performance in terms of greenhouse gas emission reductions. It answers the questions:  What is meant by National Forest Monitoring Systems (NFMS)? Why are NFMS required, with reference to the UNFCCC? How are NFMS developed and implemented?   

This module from the REDD+ Academy Course on Fundamentals on REDD+ considers finance as a multi-faceted means to achieve REDD+ objectives, i.e. reducing emissions and increasing removals of greenhouse gasses. The module includes explanations about:  The multi-facets of REDD+ finance Financing REDD+ readiness Financing the implementation of policies and measures Accessing the results-based REDD+ finance 

This module from the REDD+ Academy Course Fundamentals on REDD+ is designed for participants to understand the purpose and the importance of quality REDD+  NS/AP design processes and NS/AP documents to implement REDD+ activities successfully and ensure results. It also highlights various elements that countries may find useful to take into consideration to achieve this. The module includes explanations about:  National Strategies/Actions Plans and the UNFCCC Developing National Strategies/Action Plans Cross-cutting issues throughout the National Strategies/Action Plans development process.   

This module of the REDD+ Academy Course Fundamentals on REDD+ looks at how countries can design and implement policies and measures (PAMs) for REDD+ implementation. It follows on from the module on drivers of deforestation and forest degradation and is closely related to the next module on National Strategies/Action Plans. The module includes explanations about:  PAMs under the UNFCCC PAMs in relation to drivers and REDD+ activities Analytical work in support of PAMs design Designing and implementing nationally appropriate PAMs Monitoring for PAMs 

 This module of the REDD+ Academy Course Fundamentals of REDD+ presents the main drivers of deforestation and forest degradation and proposes a framework to analyze them. It includes explanations about:  the main drivers of deforestation and forest degradation the importance of analyzing drivers of deforestation and forest degradation how to analyze drivers of deforestation and forest degradation

This module of REDD+ Academy course Fundamentals of REDD+ provides the basis for the UN-REDD Programme. It includes explanations about: What is meant by REDD+ and how it is been negotiated at the global level. The importance of REDD+ implementation and challenges faced at the national level International initiatives to support REDD+ implementation at the national level 

This module of Fundamentals of REDD+ shows evidence that the climate is changing and shows a clear link with human activity. It then presents the role of forests in relation to climate regulation. 

Spatial Analysis: A Tool for Integrated Land Use Planning for REDD+ This brief brings together country experiences to identify the critical success factors in the development of spatial analyses to inform REDD+ implementation, and their uptake into national REDD+ strategy and implementation plans. It aims to provide information and lessons learned to those countries that are still preparing their national REDD+ strategies or action plans (NS/APs), as well as to those who have already approved a NS/AP and that are now in the process of developing investment or implementation plans for specific REDD+ jurisdictions, policies or measures.
