Abstract

REDD+ in the DRC is aimed at providing environmental and socio-economic outcomes. Effective, efficient and equitable benefit sharing mechanism is key in this regard. This study investigates the legal and institutional frameworks, the policy implementation and projects experiences on Benefit sharing. It shows that after a decade of REDD+, there have been efforts to implement the enabling environment for Benefit sharing. However, the country is still to learn from past and ongoing experiences to achieve expected outcomes.
