REDD+ Ethiopia

Ethiopia has been in the REDD+ process since 2008 and is now a REDD+ participant country to the Forest Carbon partnership Facility (FCPF) of the World Bank.

The country created the REDD+ Secretariat to implement REDD+ Readiness Phase and coordinate all efforts related to REDD+ (forestry and climate change) and to deliver on the green economy vision. The Secretariat is technically supported by the Federal REDD+ Technical Working Group, and REDD+ Task Forces drawn from relevant stakeholders. Federal REDD+ Steering Committee is the highest decision making body on matters related to REDD+ in Ethiopia.
