NO Inspired by the 2010 Cancun Agreements under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which urged country Parties to address land tenure issues (para. 72 of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change decision 1/CP.16), the UN-REDD Programme was early to recognize the importance of land tenure and the role of REDD+ within national land use strategies, including it in its programme strategy for the period 2011–2015. Successive UN-REDD Programme strategies (for the periods 2016–2020 and 2021–2025) have consistently included work on tenure as a key enabling condition for REDD+. The approach of the UN-REDD Programme with regard to tenure is based on the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure, a landmark document developed and endorsed by the Committee on World Food Security under the auspices of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
