The Land-use Finance Tool offers methodological guidelines to countries, jurisdictions and their partners to map public and private investments that support forest and climate objectives, and those which might be driving deforestation.

Comprehensive quantitative and qualitative analysis of land-use investments is a key step to building robust REDD+ investment frameworks. Such analysis can also help leverage additional sources of funding, and support efforts to coordinate and align spending towards climate objectives.

Côte d’Ivoire, Cambodia, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam have used the Tool to test this approach. The Tool’s guidelines are available for download.
