Innovation exchange and collective action, supporting the largely invisible work of dedicated career civil servants in tropical forest regions. Beyond the essential work of these governmental networks, a global "green jurisdiction" registry is needed that allows tropical forest governments or multi-stakeholder groups anywhere in the world — beginning with current network members — to register their formal commitment to slow tropical deforestation and/or speed forest recovery, to disseminate the types of partnerships they are seeking to implement these commitments, and to provide core information about their policies, commodities and programs. A global registry is needed that allows tropical forest governments or multi-stakeholder groups to register their formal commitment to slow tropical deforestation and/or speed forest recovery.
Such a registry is under development at the Earth Innovation Institute, building on the GCFImpact.org online jurisdictional information system. Some tropical forest jurisdictions, such as the state of Acre in the Brazilian Amazon, have developed individualized performance platforms with a focus on opportunities for business partnerships Fiji Email List n low-carbon industries, which could become an important new trend. Draft guidance for establishing effective corporate-government tropical forest partnerships to this end has been provided by the Steering Committee of the "Balikpapan Challenge" group on agricultural production and tropical deforestation, based upon surveys of GCF government representatives.
A global system for supporting green jurisdictions should include all jurisdictions that have embarked upon the journey, not just front-runners; it should lead to mutually beneficial partnerships, and it should be consistent with, and supportive of, the producer region’s public policies and programs. For corporate-government partnerships to flourish and proliferate, it will be crucial for advocacy NGOs that currently target corporate performance in implementing zero deforestation commitments to find ways to recognize and support promising new partnerships between companies and aspiring jurisdictions.
