📢 REDD+ Resource #BiodiversityDay edition is out!

This edition reminds us that forests are more than carbon stores. They are living ecosystems where species survive, food systems are sustained, and local economies thrive.

Kenya continues to assert its leadership in global climate action by advancing ambitious forest conservation and carbon finance initiatives. This Summit marks a defining moment in strengthening international collaboration on climate resilience.
Today, I had the honor of presiding over the official opening of the 1st REDD+ Global Summit 2026 here in Nairobi, alongside Forestry Principal Secretary Mr. Gitonga Mugambi, marking a significant milestone in advancing global collaboration on forest conservation, climate action, and sustainable carbon financing.
This high-level Summit has brought together government leaders, UNFCCC representatives, policymakers, technical experts, financiers, Indigenous Peoples, civil society, and development partners committed to strengthening REDD+ implementation worldwide.
I emphasized that this Summit comes at a defining moment for the global climate agenda, as countries intensify efforts to meet their Paris Agreement commitments and scale up nature-based solutions.
Since the adoption of the Warsaw Framework for REDD+ in 2013, notable progress has been made in establishing the policy, institutional, and technical foundations necessary to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.

Today, REDD+ stands as a critical mechanism under Article 5 of the Paris Agreement, supporting forest conservation, enhancing carbon stocks, promoting sustainable forest management, strengthening resilience, and contributing to biodiversity and livelihoods.
As we approach the 2030 targets, the urgency to accelerate implementation, mobilize climate finance, and ensure equitable benefit-sharing for forest-dependent communities and Indigenous Peoples cannot be overstated.
Kenya remains a global leader in REDD+ readiness and implementation. As highlighted by PS Mugambi, we are proud to be the first country in Africa to launch a National REDD+ Registry enhancing transparency, coordination, and credibility in carbon markets.
We remain committed to strengthening partnerships and advancing impactful forest-based climate solutions globally.

One of the biggest misconceptions about #REDD+? That it’s just about stopping #deforestation

It goes further, transforming how forests are valued & managed, while supporting communities, cutting emissions & protecting biodiversity.

[UN Environment Programme @UNEP]

Our planet is sending us a clear signal.

From climate change to deforestation and land-use change, the pressures on our planet are growing.

On #EarthDay and every day, the world must accelerate its shift to a sustainable economy, one that works for both people and the planet.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

#EarthDay is a reminder of the fragility of our world.

But we know what must be done:

End our addiction to fossil fuels.
Accelerate the renewables revolution.
Protect & restore nature.
Deliver climate justice for the most vulnerable.

Let’s #ActNow – for people & planet.
