To sum up, together with Tanzania‟s well established PFM programme, a stablesocio-political situation, its confirmed REDD Readiness funding from especiallyNorway and the UN-REDD programme, coupled with high rates of deforestationmakes Tanzania strongly placed to develop and operationalize a national REDDprogramme (Richards, Blomley et al. 2009).1.3 POVSUS – REDD and TFCGWe have conducted our research in cooperation with a project led by the InternationalInstitute for Environment and Development (IIED) and in partnership with sevenother organisations. The name of the project is POVSUS-REDD, which stands forPoverty and sustainable development impacts of REDD architecture: options forequity, growth and environment, and is a newly started project which will includeresearch on REDD in five selected countries: Brazil, Ghana, Tanzania, Uganda andVietnam.Through POVSUS-REDD, in close collaboration with Sokoine University ofAgriculture (SUA) and the University of Life Sciences (UMB) we have looked at theREDD process in Tanzania in general and the REDD+ Pilot project led by TFCG andMJUMITA (in Kilosa District in particular). TFCG has over 20 years of experienceworking with issues related to forest conservation and PFM in Tanzania and havetheir headquarter in Dar es salaam (TFCG and MJUMITA 2009). MJUMITA on theother hand is a network of over 150 community groups involved in PFM. It has beensupported by TFCG since 2000 and is now an independent NGO (TFCG andMJUMITA 2009).In 2009, as a step in the bilateral partnership between Norway and Tanzania, theyjointly presented a project proposal to the Royal Norwegian embassy. Being the firstto be approved out of nine NGO pilot project sites, a five year partnership project waslaunched in September 2009 focusing on two project sites: one along the coast inLindi, and the other inland in Kilosa (United Republic of Tanzania 2010). Togetherthe 9 projects are scattered all over Tanzania with a range of different approaches inthe attempt to find out how to best implement REDD in Tanzania.16
Due to both limitations of time and practical considerations we have focused onTFCG and MJUMITA‟s pilot site in Kilosa District, whithin which three pilot villageswere selected. Kilosa District is a part of the Morogoro region and located in theEastern Arc Mountains, a part of the Eastern Afromontane biodiversity hotspot(United Republic of Tanzania 2010). The aim of the project is “to reduce greenhousegas emissions from deforestation and forest degradation in Tanzania in ways thatprovide direct and equitable incentives to rural communities to conserve and manageforests sustainably” (TFCG and MJUMITA 2009, p.9). TFCG have “expressed aninterest in integrating its experience with PFM with future opportunities under thecarbon trade...” thereby including their expertise on PFM as the way forward in boththeir pilot sites (TFCG and MJUMITA 2009, p.8).1.4 Problem Statement and JustificationIt is widely recognized that climate change is mainly due to emissions of greenhousegasses, caused by human activities. The developed countries are now starting to lookfor viable options for providing emission compensation for its industries, and in thisquest, REDD is being developed as a mechanism with a multifunctional – effect ingains; for climate, for biodiversity and as a pathway for sustainable developmentwhere local people receive gains. However, this is a new and emerging policy fieldwith unknown outputs and outcomes both on international level and within a nationalcontext.It is therefore a pressing need for country specific, data rich and comparative socialstudies to be able to address future challenges as well as present needs.As many ask “how can REDD mitigate climate change and contribute to biodiversityin Tanzania as well as contribute to sustainable development without compromisingthe most vulnerable groups in society?”.Given the timeframe we had to work in wedecided to focus only on how climate change could be mitigated while at the sametime achieve equitable and sustainable development for local communities and notinclude the issue of biodiversity concervation as this would have been too broad of ascope. We therefore aim to investigate the concept of REDD both theoretically and17
