REDD+ Communication

The R-PP process emphasizes more importantly on creating ownership through active involvement of all stakeholders. This involvement would be realized when the public/stakeholders are informed of the REDD+, the R-PP process and when they are mobilized to support the process. Being a Government led process, it is essential that Political and Executive leadership is informed of the requirements and process for preparing Ethiopia’s Readiness and is regularly updated on the progress. Equally important is the fact that Ethiopia needs to effectively communicate to stakeholders on the progress towards readiness for REDD+. Without having a strategy that effectively reaches the predetermined target
audiences, well developed compelling message and proper delivery of message to those critical audiences, attaining buy-in and meaningful engagement of stakeholders is very challenging. Hence, the need for communication strategy is certain.
