Mitigation Actions and Policy Measures
Reduce GHG emissions from avoided forest conversion by 2030 through enhanced implementation of the National REDD+ Strategy
o Reduce GHG emissions by 1,800 Gg CO per year by limiting Forest Management Concessions to 1.6 million ha by 2030
O Reduce GHG emissions by 3,200 Gg COe per year by converting timber sales contracts into carbon concessions by 2030
Improve national programs and policies to reduce GHG emissions by incentivizing sustainable fuelwood and charcoal production by
2030 (Link to Health and Energy sectors).
o Reduce emissions by 1,100 Gg COe per year by increasing the efficiency of charcoal production and use by 2030
Establish 5 new Protected Areas to complement the existing government commitment to increase forest Protected Areas to 1.5
million ha, ensuring a 3km buffer zone, by 2030
o Reduce emissions by 210 Gg COe per year by accelerating the designation of forest Protected Areas
 By 2030, increase the urban canopy covers in 5 cities (Paynesville, Monrovia, Buchanan, Gbarnga and Gompa) to 50%. In each city, this
includes increasing the amount of dedicated open and green spaces by 10% each year and restoring or enhancing at least 0.5 km (50
ha) of natural areas each year.
