Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH
Together with the Kathmandu-based International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), a project has been formulated to receive funding from the International Climate Initiative (ICI) of the Federal Environment Ministry of Germany for a regional REDD+ program. Its purpose is to prepare selected national partners in the Himalaya region in applying results-based REDD+ approaches and to support them in the ecological restoration and sustainable use of forest ecosystems.
ICIMOD has had initial local pilot experience with REDD+ in Nepal and has been approached by the Himalayan states for more extensive support. The challenge is to further develop these initial experiences and to test them in forest-rich areas in the eastern Himalaya.
- Preparation of the technical project document.
- Discussions with ICIMOD, GIZ Nepal and the four regional program partners:
- Nepal: Ministry of Forests and Soil Conservation – REDD Cell.
- Bhutan: Ministry for Agriculture and Forests.
- Myanmar: Ministry of Environmental Conservation and Forestry.
- India: Indian Council of Forestry Research and Education (ICFRE).
- Drawing up the detailed budget for each of the involved partners.
