The Private Sector in the REDD+ Supply Chain: Trends, challenges and opportunities (Key Messages)

This executive summary outlines research conducted by the ASB Partnership for the Tropical Forest Margins and the International Institute for Sustainable Development on the role of the private sector within the REDD+ supply chain. The research, supported by Norad, aims to identify private sector players, their motivations, and the challenges they face to increase the scale of effective involvement in mitigating climate change and deforestation.

• Private sector engagement is considered a critical factor for the success of REDD+, particularly for scaling up investment to address funding gaps and providing technical expertise to mitigate climate change by addressing deforestation drivers.
• Progress toward mobilizing private finance for REDD+ was advanced at the 17th Conference of the Parties through the recognition of market-based approaches and the willingness to diversify funding sources to include bilateral, multilateral, public, private, and alternative options.
• Despite the potential for private sector contribution, there has been limited effort to identify the specific players involved, their diverse scales of operation, their expertise, their motivations, and the forms of their involvement.
