Please be advised that FPP has compiled a new paper about international finance for REDD, avoided deforestation and low carbon development planning in Guyana (South America) under our "Forests, Rights and Climate" briefing series. The paper pinpoints some key emerging lessons, including, inter alia, the vital need for land tenure and territorial rights issues to be addressed as early as possible upstream in forest and climate initiatives.

The briefing is availble in English and Spanish at:
