Actions or measures taken for achieving one goal may be mutually reinforcing or contradictory with achieving...

The adverse effects of climate change have disproportionately fallen on women. In consequence, the challenges women face adapting to climate change have tended to overshadow the contributions women make to mitigating climate change. To some degree, the emphasis on adaptation has also fed false narratives of women as passive victims of climate...

途上国の森林減少・劣化に由来する温室効果ガス排出の削減等（以下「REDD＋」という。）は重要な気候変動対策であり、気候変動に関する国際連合枠組条約の第21回締約国会議（COP21）で合意された「パリ協定」にもその実施と支援を奨励することが明記されたところである。 REDD＋の推進には、途上国に対する資金と技術の提供が必要とされているが、公的資金には限界があることから、今後、REDD＋の取組みを拡大していくには、民間セクターからの資金や技術の提供が鍵となる。しかしながら、民間セクターがREDD＋に対して投資するには、排出削減クレジットが獲得できる等のインセンティブが必要（①）とされる。また、途上国がREDD＋を実施するには、COP決定を踏まえつつ、各々の国情に応じた排出削減量の算定...
