Improving acceptability of Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) projects among local households requires adaptive policy approach based on the implementation experience of such projects. This paper analyses the current state of REDD+ implementation in Indonesia based on a synthesis of policy documents, published studies and our field research. A key finding of this analysis is that enhancing the acceptability of REDD+ is contingent on the appropriation of its benefits and costs to affected households, which further depends on forest management regime – private, community, and government. In implementing REDD+ projects, efficiency can be achieved by targeting selected groups as REDD+ participants, adapting transparent implementation mechanism, and sharing factual information among local communities to mitigate REDD+ scepticism.

政策论坛：提高印尼当地家庭对REDD+项目的接受度

提高当地家庭对减少森林砍伐和森林退化所致排放量 (REDD+) 项目的接受度需要基于此类项目的实施经验的适应性政策方法。本文综合政策文件、已发表的研究和我们的实地研究，分析了印度尼西亚 REDD+ 实施的现状。该分析的一个关键发现是，提高 REDD+ 的可接受性取决于其对受影响家庭的收益和成本的分配，这进一步取决于森林管理制度——私人、社区和政府。在实施REDD+项目时，可以通过将选定的群体作为REDD+参与者，采用透明的实施机制来实现效率，
