| Title | If we cannot define it, we cannot save it: forest definitions and REDD | | Author | Meine van Noordwijk and Peter A Minang | | Year | 2009 | | Publisher | ASB Partnership for the Tropical Forest Margins | | City | Nairobi, Kenya | | Call Number | LE0163-09 | | Notes | ASB Policy Brief No. 15 |

| Abstract: |
| • Application of UNFCCC accounting rules for Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) can help countries bypass the need for clear definitions, reduce leakage
and promote multifunctional landscapes such as agroforestry
• The scope of emission reduction agreements needs further negotiation alongside the overall commitments for emission reductions
• Before new emission reduction targets are set, no credible way of reducing emissions should be left untested |
