Lessons from REDD+ readiness implementation experience in the Republic of Congo: getting ready for REDD+ under uncertain, national circumstances

This report details the lessons learned from REDD+ readiness activities in the Republic of Congo, focusing on technical capacity, institutional strengthening, and the necessity of early stakeholder engagement to integrate REDD+ into sustainable development.

• The Republic of Congo has made progress in institutional strengthening and building technical and scientific capacity as part of its REDD+ readiness activities.
• The report recommends that REDD+ readiness be understood through three distinct components: the development of national policies, the engagement of stakeholders, and the ability to create scientific baselines.
• Due to the complexity of REDD+, the report suggests that stakeholder engagement and capacity building must be targeted at the earliest possible stage to ensure effective integration into sustainable development.
