Kirsten,

Others could respond with greater insight from the perspective of the UNFCCC 
negotiations, but the timing sounds right vis a vis the group of Latin American 
countries that were pushing for inclusion of forests in the climate treaty.  
The efforts of a little known coalition called GRILA are described on pp. 208- 
of the following chapter from Who Rules the Earth?:

Re: [gep-ed] Re: REDD +

2015-04-24 Thread Ian Fry

Dear Kirsten,
The idea of REDD was first introduced during a Seminar of Government 
Experts in Bonn, May 2005. However, avoided deforestation was also a 
proposed activity in the early stages of the Clean Development 
Mechanism. Some of this information is included in an article I wrote 
(apologies for self promotion) entitled: Ian Fry, 2008, Reducing 
Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation: Opportunities and 
Pitfalls in Developing a New Legal Regime, /Review of European and 
Community International Environmental Law/, 17 (2).
The article is a bit dated now as REDD has moved on quite rapidly, but 
it does give you some of the early history.

(I will send Kirsten a copy of the article directly)
regards
