Objectives<br />
1. Reduce emissions from peat and natural forest<br />
conversion<br />
2. Identify and secure high conservation value forest<br />
3. Secure economic benefits for local communities to<br />
protect high conservation value forest<br />
4. Encourage the private sector and community to<br />
operate to strengthen biodiversity conservation<br />
5. Identify susta<strong>in</strong>able f<strong>in</strong>anc<strong>in</strong>g mechanisms through<br />
REDD<br />

2. Fire monitor<strong>in</strong>g and control<br />
3. Restoration of the vegetation – natural regeneration should be possible<br />
4. Monitor<strong>in</strong>g and evaluation<br />

<strong>REDD+</strong> <strong>in</strong> HCVA<br />
with<strong>in</strong> Palm Oil Concession<br />
Goal: Create model to use <strong>REDD+</strong><br />
to f<strong>in</strong>ance conservation of HCV<br />
areas with<strong>in</strong> palm oil concessions.<br />
Analysis:<br />
• HCVF Surveys confirm that parts<br />
of the concession are critical<br />
orangutan habitat.<br />
• Deep peat areas has been<br />
identified<br />
• Draft Carbon Account<strong>in</strong>g Area<br />
(7000 hectares) designed to<br />
preserve critical habitat, deep<br />
peat, and connectivity.<br />
• GHG Emission Reductions from<br />
the Carbon Account<strong>in</strong>g Area<br />
could total 18,000,000 tons CO 2 e.<br />

• Create community development<br />
plan.<br />
• Engage communities and ga<strong>in</strong><br />

• Develop REDD revenue shar<strong>in</strong>g<br />
mechanism.<br />
• Ref<strong>in</strong>e carbon account<strong>in</strong>g area<br />
based on ecological, technical and<br />
social assessments.<br />
• Develop project documents under<br />
the Voluntary Carbon Standard<br />

• Stop Encroachment to the site<br />

Notes on REDD <strong>in</strong> HCVA Oil Palm<br />
1. Legal Aspect<br />
a. HCVA with<strong>in</strong> concession should be legally strengthen by<br />
District Regulation (from Bupati)<br />
b. HCVA outside concession should be approached by Hutan<br />
Desa/Adat designation<br />
2. Economic and Market Aspect<br />
a. Revenue from <strong>REDD+</strong> on peat cover HCVA protection cost<br />
b. Revenue from <strong>REDD+</strong> couldn’t cover all opportunity cost<br />
of traditional farm<strong>in</strong>g<br />

Challenges<br />
• Delay <strong>in</strong> secur<strong>in</strong>g appropriate licens<strong>in</strong>g and<br />
concession<br />
• Address<strong>in</strong>g overlapp<strong>in</strong>g land use claims/plans<br />
• Unclear regulation on REDD and <strong>REDD+</strong><br />
Schemes<br />
Innovative Conservation S<strong>in</strong>ce 1903
Expectation to the Government<br />
• Shorten the process of obta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>Forest</strong><br />
Management License<br />
• Clear regulation on REDD and <strong>REDD+</strong> Schemes<br />
