“…In Ghana, Kumeh et al (2019) found that local stakeholders in five districts had little information on funding mechanisms for plantations in the country. A similar challenge has been identified with funding for the related scheme, REDD+ (reducing emissions from deforestation, forest degradation and the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stocks) more broadly (Montoya-Zumaeta et al, 2021).…”

An increasing number of businesses is funding tree planting. Several intermediaries intervene between the funding company and those planting trees, each playing a specific role. To ensure quality tree planting, intervention and leverage points need to be identified. We aim to understand the chain between the corporations that finance tree planting and those planting trees. We reviewed 61 multinational companies from France, Switzerland and the UK, involved in tree planting, and identified the partners with whom they work to attempt to characterise this chain. Our results show that there are at least eight different functions starting with the multinational company, then financiers, regulators, quality controllers, enablers, project developers, brokers and finally, implementers. Most corporations mobilise three to four actors or levels to carry out tree planting. The multiplicity of actors is both positive (e.g., quality assurance) and negative (e.g., adds costs). Growing pressure for corporations to demonstrate social and environmental responsibility signifies that more tree planting is likely. Yet, many challenges exist in this sector, which we aim to describe. Critical challenges we identify include transparency, equity and quality. In conclusion, this booming multilayer sector should be better structured; understanding the actors and their respective roles provides a first step in this direction.

“…In examining whether substantial relationships exist between C4 and other characteristics (C4 I ÷ III) and characteristic groups (C4 C1÷C12), our review finds that C4 and relationships to PES funding is analyzed in 349/376 studies (92.82 %). Indeed, funding is seen as an important factors in making PESPs available in reality [ [146] , [147] , [148] , [149] ] (C4→II: +). Funding is often conditional, adjusted according to performance results [ 150 ].…”

“…Basically, program financing models have strong associations, not only with implementation process [ [146] , [147] , [148] ] (C4→II: + ) and crucial outcomes of PES schemes [ 1 , 73 , 115 , 151 ] (C4, II→III: + ) but also with a number of specific characteristics, such as payment types, contract rules, governance mechanisms 1 [ 17 , 73 , 154 , 156 ], participation [ 1 , 147 , 154 , 155 ] (C2, C4, C6, C8, C9, C10→II: + ). Other relationships between PESP funding and other characteristics are observed, such as goals [ 156 ], land tenures [ 23 ], tempo-spatial scales [ 34 ], stakeholders [ 157 ].…”

“…Table 1 summarises the findings of the REDD+ initiatives evaluated under the GCS REDD+ in Peru, as well as lessons synthesised using the analytical framework proposed by Montoya-Zumaeta et al (2021). The framework distinguishes between three types of items: those that form part of the conditions exogenous to the initiative, those related to components of the intervention's design and those directly linked to its achieved impacts.…”

The experiences of subnational REDD+ initiatives in the Peruvian Amazon provide valuable lessons for the design and implementation of national greenhouse gas mitigation efforts. •We identify lessons that could contribute to enhancing the effectiveness and equity of some of the greenhouse gas mitigation measures adopted by Peru under its Nationally Determined Contributions. •We highlight the importance of spatial targeting, customised rewards and conditionality of rewards to contribute to achieving more effective results in REDD+ initiatives. •Mechanisms to ensure transparency, participation and accountability are also key to implementing equitable and sustainable carbon mitigation initiatives.
