2. Outline
• Module 2 sample and objectives
• Research question and data
• Results: global overview
• Global summary and conclusions
• Preliminary findings: Indonesia
• Preliminary conclusion: Indonesia
3. Module 2 on subnational initiatives:
REDD+ on the ground
• Aim: Know what works and does
not in setting up REDD+ initiatives
• Criteria: effectiveness, efficiency,
equity, wellbeing, rights,
biodiversity (3E+)
5. Module 2 on subnational initiatives
• Counterfactual approach: Before-
After, Control-Intervention (BACI)
• 6 countries, 23 initiatives (of which
16 are BACI)
• Of these, 17 have household data
• Surveys of 4,185 households, 150
villages and women’s groups (87
inside and 63 outside REDD+), 23
proponent organizations, other
stakeholders
• Forest cover change through
remote sensing
6. Are REDD+ initiatives protecting and enhancing
income and wellbeing of local stakeholders?
We examine the effects of REDD+ intervention on target households through:
- Detailed household income data (agricultural, forest, business, wage, and other income) at
two points in time (roughly 2010 and 2013-14)
- Data on perception of wellbeing change at the household level at two points in time
(roughly 2010 and 2013-14)
- Data on land use practices due to involvement with interventions (2013-2014)
7. Household income: before-after

and control households,

11. Global overview: summary
• Increase in income variable at the initiative site level, but showing a
significant overall increase
• At most initiative sites (10), no apparent difference between control and
intervention villages
• But at six sites, significant difference emerging over time between
control and intervention villages, both positive and negative
• Subjective perception of wellbeing shows similarities (and dissimilarities)
in comparison with “objective” income data, i.e.:
slight improvement on average over time at both intervention and
control villages, but not in all countries
advantage tends to decline in intervention and rise in control
12. • We detect no clear evidence that REDD+ has yet had a significant
role in protecting and enhancing income and wellbeing.
Both income and wellbeing show both positive and negative
changes over time
However, where there are changes they tend to be small
compared to background dynamics
Global overview: conclusions
13. At sites where we observe significant changes between control and
intervention villages’ income and perceived wellbeing, it is unclear
whether and to what extent positive changes are due to:
REDD+ conditional interventions, i.e. what is new and
distinctive about REDD+
Interventions by REDD+ organizations that predate REDD+
Other factors
And whether negative changes are attributable to
disincentives/restrictions
Global overview: conclusions
14. We are skeptical that the marginal benefit seen in some intervention
villages can be attributed to REDD+ conditional incentives because
our previous research has shown that:
• Only 4 of 23 initiatives are selling forest carbon credits
• Only 10 have piloted conditional incentives
• 6 have ceased operating
• Without adequate REDD+ financing, REDD+ by default relying
mainly on ICDP approach
Source: Sills et al. (2014)
Global overview: conclusions
16. • The survey was conducted in 41 villages (divided into control
and intervention), across 5 REDD+ initiatives* (project site),
consisting of 1,340 households.
• Full analysis of data has not been carried out (including
distinction between the effect of REDD+ and non-REDD+
intervention).
This is an ongoing work..
*there are actually 6 REDD+ initiatives studied in Indonesia, but one initiative was not surveyed
intensively.

Not necessarily.

• Need to distinguished

• The biggest land use
change behavior are
engagement in new
land use activities
(ENLA), change in
agricultural practices
(CAP), and change in
forestry practices
(CFP).
23. • In line with the global findings, we detect no clear evidence
that REDD+ has yet had a significant role in enhancing income.
• But, there are indications that interventions implemented on
the ground may have changed land use behavior.
Indonesia overview: Conclusions
24. Follow up
• Fine tune analyses at the household level with regards to specific
REDD+ and non-REDD+ interventions.
• Moreover we plan to assess socioeconomic impacts (or lack
thereof) in relation to REDD+ carbon effectiveness.

If you go with my proposed rephrasing in slide 18, then the first bullet item on this slide can be: “As mentioned we find a marginal advantage for households in intervention villages as compared to control.”
