UN-REDD Terms of Reference for the Strategy Group, Management Group and Secretariat

The UN-REDD Programme is a collaborative initiative of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). As a collaborative Programme, UN-REDD serves as an example, and strives to be a flagship example of the "One UN" approach that is being advanced by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon. Under this approach, the three Participating UN Organizations (hereafter referred to as the UN agencies) continue to operate under their respective governing policies, procedures, and rules but commit to doing so in a manner that effectively and efficiently delivers high quality services, outputs and outcomes under the banner of a single jointly managed programme.
