Annex VII: Press Releases

MEDIA ADVISORYIndonesian president issues call to arms at ‘turning point’ for climate, development, forests

5 May 2014 — Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono called on his successor, who will take office in October, to extend a ban on the issuance of new logging licenses, saying “more remains to be done” to address unsustainable land-use practices in his country and across the region.

Speaking to nearly 2,000 participants at the Forests Asia Summit in Jakarta, Yudhoyono urged other countries in Southeast Asia to steer clear of a “self-destructing path of development.” He called upon governments in the region to commit to sustainable land-use and investment practices that do not come at the expense of Southeast Asia’s natural resources — chiefly its forests. Indonesia is home to the world’s third-largest area of tropical forests.

“What we do today is not for our own benefit,” Yudhoyono said. “It is for the billions of people who will inherit our Earth.”It was one of several calls to action ahead of what is seen as a critical window for informing major global policy processes related to climate change and sustainable development.

“Our world is at a turning point,” said Peter Holmgren, Director General of the Center for International Forestry Research, which co-hosted the Summit with the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry. “Decisions are to be made on the international arena over the next 18 months that may shape our common future for generations to come.”

Southeast Asia is considered to be on the frontline of the fight to balance the needs of a growing population, a growing economy, and environmental protection. The Forests Asia Summit sought to bring together regional stakeholders — from governments, civil society, academia and the private sector — to generate inclusive, equitable solutions for this challenge.

Economically and demographically, Southeast Asia is one of the fastest-growing regions in the world. In recent years, it has also seen some of the

worst effects of unsustainable development and agricultural expansion — such as the haze crisis of June 2013 that choked the skies of Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore with smoke caused by human-started fires in Sumatra.

“We have a problem,” said Vivian Balakrishnan, Singaporean Minister for the Environment and Water Resources. “And the root of this problem is misaligned commercial interests.”

Companies set on short-term profits in Southeast Asia, he said, help to drive what he called “environmental vandalism.”

Underpinning the Summit is the idea that the problems of one Southeast Asian country are problems shared by all.

“Individual countries cannot overcome interconnected problems” including poverty, inequality, environmental degradation and economic instability, said U Win Tun, the Union Minister for Environmental Conservation and Forestry of Myanmar. The minister urged the narrowing of development gaps among ASEAN member states; his country has recently begun to open its doors to expanded trade.

The Summit saw numerous discussion forums centered around five themes — climate change, sustainable investments, food security, governance and equitable development. Messages and outcomes from these discussions will inform high-level panels on these themes on Tuesday, the second day of the Summit. The role of the private sector will be a major focus of the Summit on Tuesday.

Several high-level speakers will take to the podium on Tuesday, including Manuel Pulgar-Vidal, Peruvian Minister of the Environment and President of the UNFCCC climate change talks in Lima, Peru. Also speaking will be Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which recently released an assessment report on climate change mitigation.

All Southeast Asian countries sent delegations to the Summit to share lessons and experiences on green growth and sustainable development. Ministerial delegations also came from Africa and Latin America.

MEDIA ADVISORYFunds are ‘enormous’, will is weak to fuel low-carbon economy: Experts

6 May 2014 — The world’s top climate scientist told an international conference today that tackling climate change is an opportunity, not a burden, and a leading financier said there is plenty of money to fund sustainable development.

“The path we need to follow is very clear if the world wants to limit the temperature increase to 2 degrees Celsius,” Dr. Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) told delegates on the final day of the Forests Asia Summit in Jakarta. “And that … should be seen as an opportunity, rather than something that will add a burden to different societies across the globe.”

“The cost of this pathway of mitigation is really very low,” said Pachauri, adding that the “loss in consumption per year globally would be no more than 0.06 percent of the global GDP.”

Peru’s Environment Minister, Manuel Pulgar-Vidal, who will preside over the UN climate change talks in Lima in December, said that forestry should be at the core of any future climate change agreement.

Southeast Asia is on the frontline of the fight to balance the needs of a growing population, a growing economy, and environmental protection. Ministers, civil society, academia, the private sector and youth took advantage of the two-day Summit to seek ways to better manage forests and landscapes in the shift toward a ‘green economy’.

Referring to the resources needed to finance this shift, Mark Burrows of Credit Suisse said, “this capital already exists at an enormous scale. An estimated US$225 trillion of private capital is currently allocated through the world’s financial markets.” The mood

among the big investors is changing, he added. But “we need political investment to unlock financial investment.”

The next 18 months represents an unprecedented opportunity to address pressing climate and development issues, experts at the Summit said. In December 2015, countries will agree on an overarching climate agreement to replace the expiring Kyoto Protocol. The process of formulating the post-2015 development agenda and Sustainable Development Goals is taking place in parallel.

Forests play “an important role” in these frameworks, said Pulgar-Vidal, President of this year’s UNFCCC Conference of the Parties (COP) in Lima. Speaking at the Summit on Tuesday, he highlighted the complementary position of Latin American and Southeast Asian countries in the lead-up to the next climate agreement — and urged leaders in Southeast Asia to seize the moment.

“It should be clear that we are not going to repeat Kyoto … we are building momentum towards a new international climate agreement,” he said.

Unlike the Kyoto Protocol, he said, “this agreement will be reached from the bottom up” and be inclusive of indigenous people, the private sector, scientists and policymakers.“And it will bring hope to millions because it will be a core component in the international development debate,” Pulgar-Vidal said.

Dozens of commitments were made at the Summit to increase green investment, expand research and foster dialogue among different stakeholders.

“The commitments made at the Forests Asia Summit help put us on the path to a sustainable world,” said Peter Holmgren, Director General of the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), which hosted the Summit – attended by 2,300 people and watched by thousands more globally online.

Pehin Dato Yahya Bakar, Minister of Industry and Primary Resources of Brunei, committed to limit his country’s agricultural footprint to 1 percent of land area while working to improve yields to achieve greater food security — for the purposes of protecting Brunei’s tropical forests.

Press Releases

Demetrio Ignacio, Undersecretary of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources of the Philippines, shared his country’s experiences with an ambitious commitment to reverse decades of extensive deforestation by planting 1.5 billion trees throughout the country.

All Southeast Asian countries sent delegations to the Summit to share lessons and experiences on green growth and sustainable development. Ministerial-led delegations also came from Africa and Latin America.

Speaking at the conference on Monday, Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono called upon governments in the region to commit to

sustainable land-use and investment practices that do not come at the expense of Southeast Asia’s natural resources — chiefly its forests.

Pulgar-Vidal was unequivocal about the need to act now. “We are in a special time,” he said. “We are building momentum because we are short on time.

“We need to have an output from Lima.”

This outcome statement is a compilation of reporting from the sessions at the Forests Asia Summit, prepared by the organizers. As such, it provides an overview of messages throughout the conference, but does not constitute a joint conclusion by the participants. In summary, the reporting concludes that: • To achieve equitable and sustainable green

growth in Southeast Asia, all stakeholder groups must strive to overcome communication barriers, engage in continued, participatory dialogue, and act together within a landscape and multilevel governance framework.

• Government, the corporate sector and the � nance sector must work together to create enabling conditions to unlock private capital and support investments in sustainable landscapes and smallholders.

• The scienti� c community, with support from the public and private sectors, must engage in integrated and targeted research aimed at increasing understanding of the dynamics that shape landscapes and communicate � ndings to government and business in a way that supports evidence-based changes in policy and practice toward a sustainable future and action on the ground.

Government ministers, deputy ministers, forestry department directors, CEOs and business executives, civil society leaders, scientists and funding partners from Southeast Asia and beyond joined the call for action, made commitments, and shared lessons and experiences on green growth and sustainable development.



Outcome StatementMay 2014 3

• A shift away from mere rhetoric toward actual coordination and collaboration in REDD+ and adaptation across levels, sectors and actors, in order to achieve consistency in the design and implementation of policies and activities.

2. Increased investments in sustainable land use

Government, the corporate sector and the � nance sector must work together to create enabling conditions to unlock private capital and support investments in sustainable landscapes and smallholders.

The private corporate sector must take responsibility for changing business practices, with government support and civil society acceptance.

Participants noted that: • The private corporate sector holds a large

measure of responsibility for unsustainable land-use practices, driven by the pro� t imperative of business.

• “Business as usual” and strong links between the corporate sector and government remain major impediments to the shift toward sustainability and transformational change.

• The corporate sector is making changes to the way it does business to re� ect the need for sustainable use of natural resources and shifts in consumer demand.

• The private corporate sector will continue to be the major source of � nancing for land-based investments. The relatively scarce public funds need to be used more e� ectively in establishing coherent enabling frameworks to unlock the larger-scale private � nance. Government therefore plays an important role in creating the incentives and enabling conditions necessary to achieve long-term, large-scale economic change toward more sustainable and equitable business practices. - Governments must make policy

instruments that encourage private investments in sustainable business models and creative e� orts to unlock private capital, such as “green” bonds.

- Governments must work hand in hand with companies to promote policies that

1. Continued dialogue toward equitable green growth

To achieve equitable and sustainable green growth in Southeast Asia, all stakeholder groups must strive to overcome communication barriers, engage in continued, participatory dialogue, and act together within a landscape and multilevel governance framework.

Participants called for: • All sectors to invest in understanding each

other, to overcome the communication problems caused by di� erences in terminology and perceptions between the public sector, private sector and civil society.

• Improved communication between governments and the private sector, so that the private sector can fully understand development policies and how businesses � t into them.

• Improved communication between the business and research communities, so that the private sector can change practices based on robust evidence.

• Stronger collaboration in planning and implementation of plans between actors in the environmental, social and economic spheres, as actors from di� erent sectors will complement each other’s strengths, compensate for their weaknesses and ultimately increase the government’s capacity to solve problems.

• Better engagement of and consultation with local communities a� ected by development programs, especially by governments and businesses.

• Attention to power imbalances within multi-stakeholder dialogues, with careful consideration of who is included, how they are included, how they are informed and how decisions are taken, to avoid imposing top-down or inequitable decisions.

• Multi-stakeholder processes to take place at subnational level to create enabling conditions for sustainable forest management.

• Re-establishment of forest–farm connections, within a landscapes approach, for good use of farms and forest and an end to separated thinking in terms of what kind of products (food vs. timber) each can deliver.




create positive incentives, remove perverse incentives (e.g. fossil fuel subsidies) and build infrastructure.

- Governments must set standards to de� ne “green” investments, including through veri� cation by external parties, in order to reduce risk and complexity for investors, ensure transparency and simplify product selection.

- Government policy is needed to enable businesses to make formal investments in informal economies.

- Government can invest public capital in research and undertake large-scale commitments that are beyond the scope of the private sector, such as commitments to investing in mini-hydro, wind, tidal and solar energy.

The � nance sector must play an important role in steering sustainable and ethical investments.

Participants noted that: • Finance in itself, disconnected from

corporations/operations, can have a fundamental role in raising standards and in developing new products that drive sustainable and ethical investments, but we also need to bridge the “perception gap”.

• Finance schemes — including micro� nance — can contribute to sustainable and ethical investments, but require government policies to enable them and must be: - accessible to smallholders - responsive to smallholders’ needs - accompanied by complementary

measures such as certi� cation schemes (for commodities such as palm oil, timber and aquaculture products that come from mixed-use mangroves/aquaculture landscapes)

• Investments are needed to improve the quality of non-timber forest products, through technology provision and capacity, to ensure high-quality products; appropriate incentives must be o� ered to make this happen.

• For jurisdictional approaches to support REDD+ implementation, it is necessary to � nd ways to blend multiple � nancing mechanisms (e.g. REDD+, NAMAs) and adopt nested institutional architectures at di� erent jurisdictional scales (national and subnational).

• REDD+ will require leadership from governments to create business opportunities for the private sector, which is not interested in investing in REDD+. In particular, engaging private � nance in REDD+ requires a stimulus package, before COP21 in 2015.

Smallholders need to be empowered with secure land tenure and resource access rights, capacity building and access to markets and � nance to shift toward more sustainable land use.

Participants concluded: • Smallholder farmers contribute to

deforestation, forest degradation and unsustainable land use but their needs for shifting toward sustainability di� er considerably from those of the private corporate sector. The needs of smallholder farmers are related to (a) land tenure; (b) market access; (c) � nance; and (d) investment.

(a) Unclear and insecure land tenure for smallholders increases investment risks and reduces equity • Clear tenure for smallholders is necessary

to reduce the risk of engagement and investment, and hence encourage private investments in smallholders.

• Clear tenure rules are required for smallholders to be able to receive bene� ts from any type of payments for ecosystem services (PES) system.

• Balancing the statutory distribution of tenure rights between private, state and community actors could improve governance and increase bene� ts to smallholders.

(b) Smallholders continue to be disadvantaged by weak access to markets • Smallholders need greater capacity, resources

and investments to participate fully in the market economy.

• Linking smallholders to global value chains would provide them with better market access.

• E� orts must be made to shorten value chains, overcoming the challenges for smallholders associated with constraints on time, investments and trust.

• Industry and government must simplify standards to make compliance accessible to smallholder farmers.

(c) Finance • Systems of smallholder investments,

monitoring, rights, land and forest management, and engagement must be fully transparent to encourage equitable development.

• Finance schemes must be made accessible to smallholders and be responsive to smallholders’ needs.

• Regional development plans (e.g. ASEAN Green Growth and Development Plan) should be revised to remove their primary focus on business-as-usual development and resource extraction and create greater opportunities to support smallholders.

(d) Smallholders have in-depth local knowledge but need support to fully deploy it • Many smallholders need information about

practices and techniques that could improve their yields.

• Many smallholders need stronger bargaining power because they sell individually; cooperative models provide useful lessons on methods to increase their power.

• Investments must be made in capacity building and technology to strengthen smallholders’ abilities to monitor and evaluate land use and forest cover change and to verify their land rights.

3. Research and knowledge sharing

The scienti� c community, with support from the public and private sectors, must engage in integrated and targeted research aimed at increasing understanding of the dynamics that shape landscapes and communicate � ndings to government and business in a way that supports evidence-based shifts in policy and practice toward a sustainable future and action on the ground.

Participants noted that: • Research and knowledge sharing across a

wide range of topics are needed to support action on the ground.

• Research and communication of research � ndings are essential for building evidence to support and guide the policy changes necessary to address current challenges, as detailed above.

Following is a compilation of some research areas suggested during the Summit and relevant research � ndings presented; these lists cannot be considered exhaustive.




Sustainable development of landscapes

Research could, for example: • Identify lessons learned from watershed

management, community forestry and integrated resource management.

• Determine the real costs of conversion of cropland to forest and of equitable sustainable development of landscapes.

• Inform models of cooperation that go beyond large-scale transnational corporations directly managing forests.

• Understand the role of forestry within the global development agenda.

• Find ways to overcome institutional resistance and technical obstacles to achieve e� ective spatial planning and to document performance in di� erent localities.

• Clarify the high carbon-storage capacity of mangroves in order to inform decision-making about the future of these forests.

Smallholders

Research could, for example: • Inform the development of policies and

incentives that support capacity building and increase access to markets and � nance for smallholders.

• Examine how the private corporate sector can manage the risks of investing in smallholders, in terms of increasing the scale of production and product quality and of applying a uniform landscapes approach in diverse stakeholder contexts.

• Determine the needs and interests of smallholder farmers all along the forestry value chain.

• Support capacity building and technology transfer for smallholders.

• Elucidate the diverse livelihood strategies of rural smallholders and indigenous peoples, and how these might a� ect landscape sustainability and low-carbon rural development.

• Better de� ne the meaning of “equity” in the contexts of smallholders and community forestry systems (as systems of fair bene� t sharing; as having rights to develop; as systems of shared responsibilities across the di� erent stakeholders in a landscape; or as rights to participate in decision-making processes) and how to reconcile these di� erent perspectives within an agenda of sustainable and equitable development.

Tenure and access to land and resources

Research � ndings of relevance to policy and practice include the following: • Balancing the statutory distribution of tenure

rights between private, state and community actors could strengthen governance and increase bene� ts.

• Elements that hinder forest tenure reform are lack of political will and government preferences for more protected areas.

• Recognizing the ancestral territories of indigenous peoples could substantially reduce con� icts over forest areas.

• Community-based forest management regimes have been presented as one possible solution for securing tenure and access rights; in some cases, these systems have been shown to be even more secure than formal forest tenure.

• Even customary rights that appear to be very secure can be threatened by new pressures, as seen with the emergence of new claims and new contests associated with REDD+ and large-scale land acquisitions.

Jurisdictional approaches to green development and REDD+

Research � ndings of relevance to policy and practice include the following: • Subnational governments must strengthen

institutions and governance at the jurisdictional level, especially in relation to multi-stakeholder processes, land tenure, land-use planning, and monitoring of carbon emissions and removals.

• For jurisdictional approaches to succeed, the following are required: - A jurisdictional approach must be � exible

enough to be able to deal with various future scenarios for carbon � nance.

- The focus must be on achieving robust and equitable management and governance systems.

- Jurisdictions must have the capacity to control land use, land management and outcomes, if they are to achieve emission reductions.

- Tensions between the national and subnational levels of government that are implementing REDD+ at di� erent speeds must be resolved.

- It is necessary to � nd ways to reconcile jurisdictional approaches with existing project-level approaches.




Legal and regulatory frameworks to support sustainability

Research has identi� ed the following common challenges for projects aimed at strengthening forest governance, among others: • the need for new business models • the need for new certi� cation standards • the need for cooperation and collaboration

between businesses, local communities and governments

• the need for indicators for aspects that are di� cult to measure, such as the values of carbon, water and landscape beauty in forested landscapes.

REDD+, � nance and green growth

Research � ndings on REDD+ include the following : • REDD+ must be viewed beyond the

perspective of carbon abatement only; it can boost longer-term sustainability and provide bene� ts to other sectors as well.

• Operationalizing REDD+ and facilitating green growth require profound shifts in the ways that natural capital and the non-carbon bene� ts of REDD+ are valued.

• REDD+ embodies some of the transitions necessary for green growth, including the following: - the valuation of carbon stocks - attempts to access private sector � nance - increased focus on governance reform and

transparency - equitable bene� t sharing.

• Those working with REDD+ must not only focus on forests, but also make links to energy, water, food, soil and landscapes.

• REDD+ is achievable, but the bureaucracy of project implementation is hampering progress and lacks transparency, and outcomes are uncertain.

Biodiversity

Research � ndings of relevance to policy and practice include the following: • Interventions aimed at expanding

monoculture-type forest cover in sloping lands can lead to reductions in biodiversity and agrodiversity, which will have an adverse impact on crops that rely on diverse tree cover.

• The sustainable development framework, and any Sustainable Development Goals related to food production and water provision, should consider the value of the biodiversity contained in forests.

• Production forests can have high biodiversity value if managed appropriately.

Non-timber forest products

Research � ndings of relevance to policy and practice include the following: • Local communities should be supported in

cultivating and exploiting bamboo and rattan, because of their value to local livelihoods (they sequester carbon, can be sustainably harvested and provide products such as animal feed, charcoal, furniture and construction materials).

4. Youth in Southeast Asia: Key Recommendations

Climate

Topic: What skills do youth need for future climate change careers? More: htt p://www.cifor.org/forestsasia/e-discussion-skills-youth-need-future-climate-change-careers/We ask governments, universities, non-governmental organizations, international organizations and the private sector to: 1. Increase funding for skills training and

education for youth of all ages so that all youth have the same opportunity to build climate change skills;

2. Develop partnerships between youth, the education system and job providers to ensure that relevant climate change skills can be acquired at all levels;

3. Enhance involvement and engagement of youth in climate change conferences and decision-making, not just through participation but also through training and capacity building;

4. Provide seed funding for youth driven climate change projects so that youth have a chance to ‘learn on the job’ and test our own solutions;

5. Promote climate change jobs to build on the passion and commitment youth have by providing information on the paths that can be taken for youth to contribute to addressing climate change in Southeast Asia.

Investment

Topic: To explore the green investment topics that are most important to youth in the region, and then devise ways that youth can organize to bett er infl uence green investment processes. More: htt p://www.cifor.org/forestsasia/loreal-nestle-others-committi ng-zero-deforestati onbut-youth/ • NGOs and private sector could work together

to engage youth and enhance their capacity in issues related to green investment decisions and sustainability. Engaging with experts as mentors to help youth groups target their campaigns and actions through the most e� ective channels, and make informed and coherent recommendations to policy development.

• NGOs and young professionals should work with youth to develop consumer campaigns

To empower youth in tackling major forestry and development issues, governments, universities, non-governmental organizations, international organizations and the private sector must engage in a dialogue and partnership with young people, involving youth in knowledge-sharing practices and decision making processes, whilst developing their capacity through increased funding in skills training and education.

At the Youth Session organized by CIFOR, the Internati onal Forestry Students Associati on and YPARD, youth were split into fi ve roundtables based on the Summit themes. Following are the key recommendati ons that came out of each roundtable discussion.

Equitable development

Topic: How can youth work with local communiti es to achieve development outcomes? More: htt p://www.cifor.org/forestsasia/e-discussion-can-youth-work-local-communiti es-achieve-development-outcomes/ 1. Governments should support capacity

development of local communities to raise their awareness and knowledge to give them more bargaining power.

2. Youth should be encouraged to act as a bridge between other youth, private sector, organizations, government and the local communities. They can deliver important messages about forest sustainability to every stakeholder by using social media platforms or concrete movements.

3. Governments should enforce activities and regulations that ensure companies are operating in sustainable and equitable ways – e.g. supporting Community Cooperative for Small and Medium Enterprise; assessing and managing high conversion area (HCV); land swapping that pushes companies to use marginal land for their concession instead of forestland; providing health services, infrastructure and basic education for the communities in concession areas; sharing bene� ts equitably.




to build understanding of the most pressing green investment issues in the region and the consequences of consumption of unsustainable products. Using celebrities, role models and media channels can help elevate the position and increase the e� ectiveness of these campaigns.

• Di� erent forums, including private sector, governmental and non governmental actors (e.g. RSPO, ISPO, Natural Capital Declaration, TFA 2020, ASEAN economic community council meetings) within South-East Asia should reach out to youth in the region by using existing networks (IFSA, KOPHI) to enhance their input in the important dialogues that will shape their future.

Governance

Topic: What can young people do to encourage good governance of Southeast Asia’s forests? More: htt p://www.cifor.org/forestsasia/e-discussion-can-young-people-encourage-good-governance-southeast-asias-forests/ • We urge ASEAN to establish a Youth

Secretariat on the Environment and grant youth access to high-level meetings such as the ASEAN Ministerial Meeting on the Environment and Meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution.

• We urge governments to enhance law enforcement on forest � res by establishing a mechanism for youth and the wider public to participate in monitoring and reporting forest � res (using ICTs such as text messaging, apps and social media), and for follow-up action to be taken by governments upon receiving this information.

• We urge governments to lead by example and purchase certi� ed forest products and contract suppliers with sustainable practices

• We call on the private sector to not only comply with minimum standards of certi� cation schemes, but to go beyond and operate in a way consistent with the spirit of certi� cation schemes and ensure zero deforestation

Food security

Topic: How can youth promote the importance of Southeast Asia’s forest foods? More: htt p://www.cifor.org/forestsasia/e-discussion-can-youth-promote-importance-se-asias-forest-foods/ • Policy-makers should support more

agroforestry projects and edible landscapes in the communities to improve food access. Local governments should start the integration of forests in the urban areas by encouraging the establishment of backyard gardens for each household and developing more edible botanic gardens. This activities would encourage the youth to promote the bene� ts of trees as sources of food through social media.

• Local leaders should support youth to conduct social entrepreneurship in communities that aim to develop products for food and added income. The mobilization of di� erent youth organizations with the support of the local leaders will help in the information dissemination and sharing of knowledge for the communities.

• Young professionals should be encouraged to pursue research on potential sources of food. Studies on food alternatives such as mushrooms, wildlife and non-timber forest products are still needed and the participation of youth in these studies will help develop new ideas and innovations.

15. What is the key message you took from the Forests Asia Summit?

Feedback included:

• The need to engage with the private sector and to find ways to support private investment into sustainable landscapes and growth for green returns

• The importance of multi-stakeholder partnerships and multi-disciplinary approaches, effective communication and coordination to address complex, cross-sectoral challenges in the ASEAN region

• The importance of an integrated landscapes approach to framing solutions • The opportunity to bridge the gap between private and public entities and civil society

organizations to achieve low emission- and equitable development • That there has been a weight of opinion and intent represented by a diverse range of public and

private sector stakeholders; that green growth/green economy is not just a passing phrase; that businesses are serious about it and it just might be a sustainable way forward

• The key point of successful climate change mitigation and adaptation is equity • People are key. From the top policy makers, all the way to the communities living in and around the

forest, you have to be able to draw connections and demonstrate the benefits for everyone involved • The need to address complex social and political structures and frameworks and the importance of

political will and commitment • The importance of communication to support policy makers to apply lessons from research in

their work • Scaling up solutions already available to address deforestation and achieve sustainable livelihoods • The role of the youth as agents of change

Annex X: Review of the Forests Asia Summit 2014 – the IDL Group (External Evaluation Report)

Executive Summary

Feedback from respondents on the summit in general was positive. There was a great deal of enthusiasm among participants for Forests Asia 2014. All respondents interviewed took something constructive from their participation and praise for the event outweighed criticism in all interviews.

Commendation for and surprise at the level and quality of private sector engagement secured by CIFOR came out as a strong pattern during interviews. Across stakeholder groups, there was consensus that one of the key achievements of the summit was bringing together regional private sector representatives to a discussion platform – and engaging them effectively.

The high profile nature of the event was also commended widely. Respondents felt that a significant amount of credibility and exposure was given to the technical content as a result, and that decision making and commitment would be possible, due to the presence of the President of Indonesia, regional government ministers and a wide range of high-level participants from donors and intergovernmental actors such as the IPCC and the UN.

There were mixed results in terms of achieving the stated outcomes for the summit. Endorsement and support for the Landscapes Approach was recognised across the board, and respondents felt that there were commitments to continued dialogue. However, commitments to further research and funding were less evident from the perspective of respondents.

The interviews gathered an impressive range of highlights and clear messages, although these were not necessarily congruent with the intended

messages for the summit. The networking potential of the event and the opportunities that have been accessed through new relationships was universally praised during interviews. The communication and social media support for the summit was also highlighted as a stand-out aspect.

In terms of structure, format, participation and organisation, we were provided with suggestions for improvement including increasing the participation

of forest-dependent communities, further diversifying the nationalities of the participation and increasing the time available for Q&A vis-à-vis presentations and keynote speeches.

We detected a great deal of enthusiasm for the potential impacts on the work of our interviewees, with the caveat that CIFOR should follow this enthusiasm up at a later date as it is perhaps too early to accurately measure lasting impacts from the summit.

We were less convinced that the summit had resulted in an increase in understanding of CIFOR or its work amongst the people that we interviewed. This is probably due to their existing background and level of experience in South-East Asian forestry issues, and because many of them have existing relationships with CIFOR. We would expect that audience participants coming from, perhaps, a lower level of exposure to CIFOR would naturally report a greater increase in understanding of the organisation as a result of their attendance and that an evaluation of this desired outcome could be achieved through a gathering of feedback from audience members, which we understand is running simultaneously to this review.
