The RECAF project targets the Central Highland and South Central Coast regions of Viet Nam to mitigate emissions from the nexus of forestry and agriculture. With a total indicative cost of USD 94 million, the project seeks to reduce 6 MtCO2e over a 12-year lifespan. Key strategies include mainstreaming the National REDD+ Action Plan (NRAP) into provincial planning, developing deforestation-free value chains for commodities like coffee and rubber, and implementing a 'low emission credit' product for smallholders. The project also focuses on enhancing forest carbon stocks on 0.5 million hectares and establishing collaborative forest management (CFM) and payment for forest ecosystem services (PFES) to benefit 40,000 smallholder households.
