Landscape of land-use finance in Cambodia: full report

WEB DESCRIPTION: Cambodia’s National REDD+ Strategy 2017-2026 (NRS) aims to contribute to national and global climate change mitigation by improving management of the country’s natural resources, particularly forest lands. The Action and Investment Plan for implementation of the National REDD+ Strategy (AIP-NRS) seeks to mobilise financial resources for the strategy’s proposed activities. Understanding sources and flows of finance relevant to the land-use sector is key to identifying major funding gaps and prioritising strategies for mobilising resources. For this study, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the EU REDD Facility supported the Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC) to analyse financial flows relevant to land use in the country. AIP-NRS objectives were considered and insights provided on other sectors relevant to drivers of deforestation and forest degradation in the country. This analysis applied the land-use finance mapping approach developed by the EU REDD Facility and Climate Policy Initiative to identify and track financial resources that affect forests and land use.
