Dear Kirsten,
The idea of REDD was first introduced during a Seminar of Government Experts in Bonn, May 2005. However, "avoided deforestation" was also a proposed activity in the early stages of the Clean Development Mechanism. Some of this information is included in an article I wrote (apologies for self promotion) entitled: Ian Fry, 2008, "Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation: Opportunities and Pitfalls in Developing a New Legal Regime", /Review of European and Community International Environmental Law/, 17 (2). The article is a bit dated now as REDD has moved on quite rapidly, but it does give you some of the early history.
(I will send Kirsten a copy of the article directly)
regards

Dear gep-eds,

Preparing for next weeks lecture I found the information that REDD+ was presented for the first time
at the climate negotiations in Bali.

Does anyone know by whom? Who  developed the idea? Are NGOs involved?

I would appreciate any further information.

Best regards,
