Forest Cover Map, 1947

3 DEFORESTATION DATA Forest area in 1947 = 70%. 1,591,303 Ha deforestaded from 1947 to 1992 (35,362 Ha/yr). Forest area in 1992 = 49.3% 377,264 Ha deforestaded from 1992 to 2000 (47,158 Ha/yr) Forest area in 2000 = 45% Forest area in 2008 =? Our goal from 2005 for the next 5 years is to reduced our deforestation rate close to 30,000Ha/yr Our proyection for 2015 to 2018 is to have 0 Ha/yr of deforestation. 4

National Distribution of Panama Forest Drivers of Deforestation in Panama Unwise use of our natural resources in the past. Expansion of agricultural Frontier agricultural rotation practices Extensive grazing activities. New infrastructure (highways, urban development, industrial development, etc.). Policies from the past like The Conquest of The Atlantic The Conquest of Darien, that promoted cutting down large forested areas in favor of agricultural, farming grazing practices, Illegal logging. Lack & Weak enforcement of forestry laws Others 6

Development Objective Incentives to increment technical assistance incomes in rural communities through business environmental activities to allow them get adapted to changes, conserving our forest biodiversity contributing to mitigate CC. National Objective Link activities between adaptation mitigation helping to improve the quality of the environment, avoiding deforestation promoting a true sustainable development. In other words, to have a shared environmental management from the watershed that allow us to recover our forest area to reduce our deforestation rate with an estrategic partnership with communities. Global Objective Conserve biological diversity of global importance protect the mountain coastal forest ecosystems of Panamá (REDD) mitigation of Climate Change. 12

REDD (Conservation for Sustainable Development): Objectives Objective The strategy aims at mitigating climate change through reducing emissions from deforestation forest degradation. In order to achieve this, we propose adaptation strategies that guarantee the availability of natural resources for future generations through compensation activities for environmental business services that foster l use change. Specific Objectives To determine, through an intense monitoring system, forest cover carbon stock as well as the degree of forests under pressure in our country. To undertake an enforcement, monitoring control system that guarantee the implementation of the REDD strategy. To improve the capacity building program for the effective participation in environmental management in the environmentally friendly business activities that the REDD strategy will promote. To establish a financing mechanism that allow for an equitable, fair transparent distribution of benefits; including direct benefit compensation to 13 communities.
