Bridging science and policy for effective REDD+ implementation: Multilevel dialogues and collaborative platforms in Indonesia
Key messages
- A science–policy dialogue platform fosters collaboration among scientists, policymakers and practitioners, promoting knowledge sharing and evidence-based policymaking to enhance effective REDD+ implementation.
- While promoting inclusive stakeholder engagement and context-specific policymaking, science–policy dialogues foster trust, alignment and informed decision making on REDD+ safeguards, benefit sharing and governance.
- Accessible research helps policymakers and subnational governments to apply REDD+ effectively and to close knowledge gaps. Continuous knowledge production and the translation of knowledge into policies and practices are essential.
- The science–policy dialogue is vital to achieving concrete action and implementation. After the dialogue, key relevant stakeholders recommended that CIFOR strengthen engagement with national decision makers to ensure that the scientific outputs inform policy.
