Forests and other lands are essential for achieving climate and development ambitions. If appropriately leveraged, natural climate solutions can contribute upwards of 37 percent of cost-effective CO Indigenous Peoples and local communities are key to achieving such outcomes. 2 mitigation by 2030,1 and evidence shows
This report presents the most comprehensive assessment to date of carbon storage in documented community lands worldwide.
Given the urgent need to prevent a collapse of biodiversity across the Earth, certain governments, organizations, and conservationists have put forward proposals for
bringing 30 percent and up to 50 percent of the planet’s terrestrial areas under formal “protection and conservation” regimes. However, given that important
Este informe se basa en el imperativo de evitar el colapso de la biodiversidad sin olvidar el respeto a la tenencia y los derechos humanos de PI, CL y AD[26]. Asimismo, al formular las siguientes preguntas, busca destacar los riesgos y las oportunidades para los PI, las CL y los AD inherentes a la expansión propuesta de las áreas de conservación:
Esta investigación nos recuerda oportunamente la importancia mundial de las tierras y territorios comunitarios; su importancia para la protección, la restauración y el uso sostenible de los bosques tropicales en todo el mundo; así como las graves brechas presentes en la arquitectura internacional del desarrollo que hasta ahora han socavado el progreso hacia el reconocimiento legal de dichas tierras y territorios.

This literature review focuses on the latter concern and aims to provide a brief overview of the international literature on the question of the relationship between forest tenure and forest cover change.
