information upwards and outwards within their agencies as well as to various target audiences such as
those in the UNFCCC.
Some information will go through the Technical Panel (TP) to: (1) evaluate and possibly revise
information before it goes to the client agencies; and (2) disseminate information through other
channels such as scholarly publications and technical meetings (including UNFCCC meetings) after
clearance by client agencies. The TP also serves an evaluative function, to guide design and
implementation; assess results; and provide advice to the PO based on those assessments. The
diagram indicates a feedback loop linking the TP, PO, and M&E, which will be a critical mechanism
for learning and knowledge capture.
Some information will flow through the database and then up through the Facility and the PO before
reaching the TP and other users, although members of the TP will be directly engaged in emissions
monitoring and will get results directly. Similarly, social experts will be involved in and get results
from village-based interventions. The database should focus on indicators for management and certain
well-defined REDD outcomes. It must be recognised that the database cannot capture all the
information that must be communicated about the KFCP and REDD.
4.2.7 UNFCCC
As one of the first large scale REDD demonstration activities, the KFCP will provide important
lessons to inform UNFCCC negotiations. It will also generate useful experience that can be drawn
upon by other demonstration activities, both in Indonesia and abroad. Disseminating these lessons will
be an important activity. Drawing on the KFCP‘s experience to inform UNFCCC negotiations will be
guided by DCC, which represents the Government of Australia in that forum, together with the
Government of Indonesia‘s negotiating team. The KFCP offers an example of close collaboration
between Annex I and G77 countries, as well practical examples of how to approach complex issues
that must be addressed in negotiations. Both of these aspects can be drawn upon to help build
international confidence in REDD. It will also be important to ensure that the KFCP contributes to the
technical debates that accompany the UNFCCC process. Participation in side events, preparation of
technical papers, promotional brochures and public presentations all offer ways of achieving this goal.
The IAFCP Partnership Office, working with DCC and its GoI partners, should seek to identify such
opportunities.
