This division oversees PNG’s National REDD+ Strategy (2017–2027), promoting low-carbon development and forest-based carbon sequestration. It plays a key role in implementing REDD+ safeguards and mitigation actions.

In 2021, CCDA submitted its REDD+ Safeguards Summary of Information to the UNFCCC, supported by a NEC-approved Safeguards Information System (SIS). This milestone enabled PNG to qualify for results-based payments under the REDD+ framework.

Divisional Goals:

  • Develop and implement national and subnational low-carbon strategies.
  • Establish GHG inventories and carbon accounting systems.

Promote green growth through targeted policy frameworks
