Voices From the Congo Basin

The document outlines five primary concerns raised by local and indigenous communities in Cameroon and the DRC regarding the implementation of Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD), emphasizing that a lack of such perspectives may hinder the development of effective measures in the Congo Basin.

• Local and indigenous communities in the Congo Basin identified five main concerns regarding the design and implementation of REDD: limited recognition of land-tenure rights, inadequate information on forest and carbon resources, weak institutional capacity and unclear roles, inequitable revenue distribution, and fewer opportunities for development.
• The lack of available information regarding the perspectives of local and indigenous populations on REDD could prevent the creation of effective REDD-related measures within the Congo Basin.
