This publication examines how Jurisdictional REDD+ (JREDD+) programmes can create meaningful opportunities for Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IP&LCs) while minimizing risks to their rights, territories, and livelihoods. As JREDD+ gains prominence as a mechanism for scaling climate action and aligning subnational initiatives with national emission reduction goals, its implementation increasingly depends on the effective participation of local stakeholders. However, many of the concepts underpinning climate mitigation initiatives, including carbon cycles, carbon markets, emissions reductions, and REDD+, remain highly technical and difficult for communities to fully understand.

Awareness and uptake gaps in climate variability adaptation and mitigation strategies among tree-crop, bee-product and fodder value chains: Eastern Province, Rwanda
Key messages
- Around 50% of farmers adopt adaptation practices (resilient crops, agroforestry, soil and water management), but only ~10% use mitigation options such as renewable energy or energy-saving cookers.
- Traders and processors show higher adoption rates for mitigation (~35% renewable energy, ~41% energy-saving measures), yet overall uptake among other value-chain actors remains below potential.
- Farmers, buyers, processors, traders, and service providers have limited awareness and adoption of climate finance, as well as carbon credit opportunities, as mitigation measures.
- Stakeholders are more aware of climate variability impacts than they are active in the utilization of adaptation or mitigation measures. Bridging this gap require=s inclusive finance, bundled incentives, and local capacity building.
- Buyers, processors and traders lack a comprehensive understanding of climate change impacts and sustainable sourcing. This underscores the need for inclusive value-chain development and private-sector investment in climate-smart agriculture technologies.
- Policymakers demonstrate relatively higher awareness and response capacity, while farmers, buyers, processors, and service providers require targeted capacity building to reach comparable levels.
