Participatory Monitoring for Forests, Climate and REDD+

The studies in this PLOS ONE collection investigate community participation in measuring, reporting and verifying (PMRV) initiatives as a contribution to international, national and project level efforts to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+). While such participation is desirable, its feasibility remains uncertain. This collection builds the empirical foundations for putting PMRV into practice.
