Sub-National Approach
Definition:
A sub-national approach is a national climate change policy, carbon accounting framework, and MRV system, whereby emissions reductions are rewarded only at the sub-national or project level. Using this approach, both Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation accounting and implementation would be focused on a defined geographic area or project site. Project development activities could be undertaken by individuals, communities, non-governmental organizations, private companies, and different levels of government. Forest CO2 emission baselines and subsequent monitoring, reporting, verifying, and rewarding would only be for the sites in question. Projects would have to account for any “leakage” or displacement of destructive activities from the project site to other forest areas outside the project area. See Nested Approach and Jurisdictional Nested REDD+ Initiative.
