Ecuador reached a significant landmark with the publication of the Technical Report on the analysis of the REDD+ results for the period 2009-2014. This important result stems from a 5-year long technical process led by the Ministry of Environment (MAE). These results are an impressive demonstration of the importance of a consistent process driven by the country itself, with clear decision making roles, based on solid scientific and technical basis, and with the involvement and participation of different stakeholders.
