TITLE: 
REDD+ ON INDIGENOUS LANDS IN THE AMAZON BIOME: a legal and geospatial analysis

KEY WORDS:

Indigenous Lands, biomass, REDD+

SUBÁREA: Manejo Florestal
SUMMARY:

Due to climate change causing alarming concerns regarding the survival of human beings on the planet, payment for environmental services has come into vogue, and among these payments, the carbon market and the REDD+ initiative stand out.

In this context, the indigenous peoples of certain regions, especially the Amazon biome, have long played a fundamental role in the conservation of fauna and flora biodiversity, so in theory they would play a major role in the fight against climate change and would be more important in the payment for environmental services, but this is not the case for several reasons. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze the feasibility and legal and geospatial challenges of including indigenous peoples in the carbon market, focusing on the application of the REDD+ mechanism in indigenous lands in the Amazon biome. The study will be conducted in two chapters, the first of which will be conducted based on documentary and bibliographic analysis regarding the legal aspect. The second chapter, which refers to the geospatial aspect, uses the Biomass map by Baccini et al., produced in 2012, to quantify the biomass and, consequently, the carbon sequestered by these areas. Afterwards, it will be analyzed whether there is sufficient biomass to meet market requirements and to safeguard the indigenous peoples of these regions. The Baccini et al. 2012 biomass map will be cut using the Qgis software in the cut tool, where cartographic modeling will be performed, in which the original biomass map will be cut only with a focus on the indigenous areas of the Amazon biome. After this, the conversion factor of (0.5) will be used to transform it into carbon, and finally, the quantitative analysis of this carbon will be done for the purpose of analyzing these areas.
