REDD+ policies in the media
CIFOR’s multiyear Global Comparative Study on REDD aims to inform policy-makers, practitioners and donors about what works in reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries (REDD+). The project is composed of a multidisciplinary research team of different nationalities, and covers three major forest basins. The REDD+ GCS project is funded by the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, the Australian Agency for International Development, the UK Department for International Development and the European Commission.
The context of REDD+ in the Democratic Republic of Congo: Drivers, agents and institutions
Reviewing the conditions in which the Reduction of Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) mechanism is being established in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is part of Component 1 of the Global Comparative Study on REDD+ (GCS-REDD) being conducted by the Center for International Forestry Research. The overall aim of this global study is to provide decision-makers, practitioners, donors and the scientific community with reliable information on the dynamics of national actions related to the REDD+ mechanism. Discussions on REDD originally seemed to focus on the construction of a global structure and the establishment of a multilateral instrument to replace the Kyoto ...
Les politiques de la REDD+ dans les médias
LÉtude comparative Globale sur la REDD+ est une étude pluriannuelle qui vise à informer les décideurs politiques, les praticiens et les bailleurs de fonds de ce qui est fait dans le cadre de la réduction des émissions issues de la déforestation et de la dégradation des forêts et de lamélioration des stocks de carbone dans les pays en développement. Le projet est composé dune équipe pluridisciplinaire de chercheurs de différentes nationalités, couvrant les trois grands bassins forestiers. Le projet GCS-REDD+ est soutenu par lAgence norvégienne pour le développement et la coopération, lAgence australienne pour le développement international, le Ministère britannique pour le développement international et la Commission européenne.
Le contexte de la REDD+ en République Démocratique du Congo
La revue du contexte de la mise en place du mécanisme de la Réduction des Emissions liées à la Déforestation et à la Dégradation des Forêts (REDD +) en République Démocratique du Congo (RDC), sinscrit dans le cadre général du Module 1 de létude comparative globale sur la REDD+ (connue sous le sigle anglais de GCS-REDD) que conduit le Centre pour la Recherche Forestière Internationale (CIFOR). Lobjectif général de cette étude globale est de mettre à la disposition des preneurs de décisions, de praticiens, des bailleurs de fonds et de la communauté scientifique des informations fiables portant sur les dynamiques dactions nationales se rapportant au mécanisme REDD +...
The context of REDD+ in the Democratic Republic of Congo
DRC has committed to reduce its emissions effectively, efficiently, and equitably from deforestation and degradation (REDD+). The country experiences complex relationships between drivers, agents, and institutions of deforestation nationally. The REDD+ policy arena is influenced by both governmental and non-governmental actors whose number have increased in the policy arena over the years; however, weak coordination among these actors remains an issue. Since 2009, the DRC has announced several reforms relating to land tenure, land-use planning and agricultural policy, to create an institutional environment that motivates the implementation of REDD+ in the DRC. By 2019, none of these reforms ...
The Path of a Genocide
The Great Lakes region of Africa has seen dramatic changes. After a decade of war, repression, and genocide, loosely allied regimes have replaced old-style dictatorships. The Path of a Genocide examines the decade (1986-97) that brackets the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. This collection of essays is both a narrative of that event and a deep reexamination of the international role in addressing humanitarian issues and complex emergencies.Nineteen donor countries and seventeen multilateral organizations, international agencies, and international nongovernmental organizations pooled their efforts for an in-depth evaluation of the international response to the conflict in Rwanda. Original studies wer...
Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA)
This working paper gives an overview of Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA), a method that enables systematic cross-case comparison of an intermediate number of case studies. It presents an overview of QCA and detailed descriptions of different versions of the method. Based on the experience applying QCA to CIFORs Global Comparative Study on REDD+, the paper shows how QCA can help produce parsimonious and stringent research results from a multitude of in-depth case studies developed by numerous researchers. QCA can be used as a structuring tool that allows researchers to share understanding and produce coherent data, as well as a tool for making inferences usable for policy advice. REDD...
Behind the Presidential Curtain
At age 16, in late 1991, Noble Marara joined the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) that was fighting the army of the Rwandan government.

Chinese trade and investment and the forests of the Congo Basin
Since 2000 and the implementation of China’s ‘going abroad’ policy, mainland Chinese state-owned and private companies have significantly increased their interests in the resources and investment opportunities of the Congo Basin, bringing new opportunities as well as potential social and environmental costs. This report is a synthesis of some main findings of preliminary scoping studies conducted by CIFOR and partners in Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo and Gabon. It focuses on how Chinese trade and investment in the forestry, mining and agricultural sectors might relate to effects on forests and forest-dependent communities in the region. All studies were conducted under the CIF...
