This journal article discusses the importance of empowering grassroots community to facilitate the sharing of climate change and REDD+ related information, knowledge and policies discussed at the national, regional and global level to local stakeholders. Sharing lessons learned from RECOFTC's Grassroots Capacity Building for REDD+ project activities implemented in five focal countries (Indonesia, La PDR, Myanmar, Nepal and Viet Nam), RECOFTC highlights a number of issues and concerns in REDD+ interventions and key elements in grassroots capacity development that foster participation, and inclusion and partnership to ensure effective REDD+ implementation.
