Tenure rights (as per national legislation)
Management of forest
Use of forest resources

Biodiversity conservation and bio-cultural practices
Capacity building and enhancing local knowledge on forest management
Forest-based small scale enterprise
Community-based eco-tourism

5. CDR measures and potential impacts on the community rights
Existing and potential large scale CDR measures
Potential impacts on the rights of community forestry groups
Reforestation
Impact on community bio-cultural protocols and practices
Impact on biodiversity conservation and utilization of related customary laws, community protocols and community-based forest/natural resource management systems,
Impact on natural regeneration of forests
land restoration and soil carbon sequestration
Impact on livelihoods (rights to grazing, sifting cultivation, micro-enterprise et.) of forest dependent poor peoples
BECCS
Impacts on community-based bio-energy systems (firewood etc.)
Impact on community priority (small scale bio-energy)
Conflicts between large scale commercial bioenergy vs. community-based small scale (non-profit) bioenergy
Missing pathways:
Enhancing local knowledge and capacity building - not enough,
Recognition of community rights, safeguards and effective governance of CDR measures is urgent.
