Community Carbon Accounting (CCA) Project: Rationale and aim
Rationale Rationale REDD+ Safeguards Decision 4/CP 15: The Convention of the Parties Decision 4/CP.15: The Convention of the Parties
“encourages, as appropriate, the development of guidance for effective engagement of indigenous
l d l l iti i it i d peoples and local communities in monitoring and reporting.”
Aim: To develop and test approaches to engage Aim: To develop and test approaches to engage local communities in monitoring their forest carbon stocks.

Assumptionsp Capacity
b d ff Community members can provide accurate, cost‐efficient measurements
Results can be fed back in a meaningful way to communities.g y
Incentives: Communities will have an incentive to participate in CCA.
Benefits
With knowledge about the value of their forests for climate change mitigation, communities will be in a better position to assess trade‐offs between alternative uses of their forest.
Community involvement in carbon accounting will increase their understanding and ownership of REDD+ and reduce social and environmental risks.e o e a s s.

ObservationsObservations
R l it i iti l N d Regular community awareness is critical. Needs a process and materials
Focus needs to be on facilitating measurement Focus needs to be on facilitating measurement and data recording by community
Building CCA into existing inventory Building CCA into existing inventory requirements makes good sense
Quality control is critical Quality control is critical Centralized data management
