REDD+, which officially began in the Central Highlands province on March 22, is worth some 1.75 trillion VND (81.5 million USD), and is aiming to curb deforestation and forest degradation, devise sustainable forest management and conservation initiatives and improve local livelihoods.
Lam Dong will focus on building its capacity and has planned a series of measures to reduce its carbon dioxide volume.
Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung approved REDD+ as a national action programme in July 2012 with the initial participation of eight provinces. Another seven have since joined.
