Indonesia’s initial regulations on REDD+ were some of the earliest national regulations to be proposed by a REDD+ country and they resembled the ‘nested’ approach to REDD+. Under this approach, entity level carbon
trading from emissions reductions in REDD+ projects can be carried out by the private sector, NGOs or communities, but under national regulations. While there is still intense debate in Indonesia as to how exactly REDD+ revenues might be shared between national and local
levels, the different policy proposals give some insight into the options.
