This case study shares some early experience and lessons from one of the pilot REDD+ projects in Tanzania 'Making REDD+ work for communities and forest conservation in Tanzania'. It outlines the community carbon enterprise model for benefits sharing, which aggregates village level emissions reductions to enable them to be traded on the voluntary market. Carbon revenues are then distribute to individual villages based on their emissions reductions and distributed within villages based on community developed, village by-laws for REDD+.
