Fourth REDD Readiness Field Dialogue

TFD held its fourth REDD Readiness Field Dialogue in Ecuador.  Participants included leaders from local and international stakeholder groups. The group visited local forest-dependent communities in the provinces of Tena and Orellana for the first two days of the Dialogue. The final two days of the Dialogue consisted of round-table discussions that engaged participants and allowed them to exchange their experiences and visions for the REDD Readiness process in Ecuador. 

This dialogue was co-organized by the IUCN Regional Office for South America and the Ministry of Environment of Ecuador.
