| Abstract: |
This report presents results from a project carried out in Vietnam to assess the potential of reducing carbon emissions from all land sues, rather than only from deforestation and degradation of forests.
The study explored the links between reducing emisisons from all land uses and nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMAs), as well as market-based approaches to the problem.
The study found that reducing emissions from all land uses in Vietnam increases the possibility of sustaining a future carbon emissions reduction scheme because it addresses an entire landscape, not only forest, and strengthens the participation of all land users, including indigenous people.
There are challenges to any scheme that aims to reduce emisisons from all land uses. These include adopting the right methods, obtaining reliable data, and legal and political issues.
The report recommends that reducing emissions from all land uses would be the most effective approach and should be implemented using cross-sectoral land-use planning and co-covernance that includes equitable involvement of government, private companies and smallholders. |
