| Publisher Description: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is providing $6 million to support climate change mitigation through reducing the rates of deforestation and forest degradation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Republic of Congo. This program will establish pilot Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) projects designed to influence policy processes; undertake micro-zoning and mapping of community territories as part of the REDD+ preparation process; support capacity building of local non-governmental organizations to promote alternative livelihoods; organize REDD+ training courses and climate awareness workshops; and demonstrate and develop sub-national REDD+ monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) systems. |
