1 Presentation of Mozambique Final ER-PD Zambézia Integrated Landscape Management Program (ZILMP) Forest Carbon Partnership Facility 17 th Carbon Fund Meeting (CF17) January 30 th February 1 st, 2018 in Paris

2 1. ER Program area: Jurisdiction and key features Zambézia province - 14% of Mozambique forest - Most densely populated with 79% rural population and 70.5% < poverty line - Two protected areas (Gile National Reserve (GNR) & Ilhas Primeiras e Segundas) 9 districts: 5.3 M ha - 3M ha forest (56%): Miombo & mangrove (1%) Sustenta project - Deforestation rate above national level with, between 2005 and 2015: Def. : 350,610 ha (35,061ha/yr) Def. rate: 1.05% - Gilé National Reserve (GNR): largest uninterrupted forest massif of Northern Mozambique (436,400 ha); uninhabited biodiversity hotspot - Geographically coherent with other initiatives funded by the World Bank : Mozbio, Sustenta, MozFip and MozDGM

3 2. Key drivers of deforestation Key drivers in Northern Mozambique 9% 1% 1% 7% 7% 3% 72% DEFORESTATION Commercial (large-scale) agriculture Small-scale (itinerant) agriculture Forestry Bioenergy & charcoal production Urban sprawling & infrastructure Mining Key drivers in in ER Program area Small-scale agriculture Slash & burn practices to optimize work productivity for maize and cassava DEGRADATION Charcoal production By-product of agriculture with no additional impact on forest cover Forestry Livestock Illegal logging and disrespect of management plans and legislation e 1: Part of deforestation and forest degradation in Northern Mozambique (Winrock international and CEAGRE, 2015) Underlying causes in ER Program area - Poor inter-institutional cooperation and law enforcement - Lack of organized process for recognizing land tenure - Low access to energy - No alternative sources of income for forest dependent population and poor access to market

4 Enabling activities (EA) ER interventions (ERI) 3. Principal interventions ERI-D1: Promotion of conservation and climate smart agriculture (incl. agroforestry systems) ERI-D2: Structuring of key sustainable supply chains for cash crops production (incl. market information and agribusiness) ERI-D3: Development of multi-purpose plantations and restoration of degraded lands (incl. Assisted Natural Regeneration) ERI-D4: Improvement of charcoal production (incl. improved kilns) ERI-D5: Strengthening protected areas management (incl. sustainable use of Non Timber Forest Products) EA-A : Development, coordination and monitoring of the ER Program (incl. Dialogue and Redress Mechanism, support to Multi-Stakeholders Landscape Forum (MSLF) and institutional strengthening) EA-B: Land delimitation (incl. community delimitation and territorial planning with the National Land Use Plan PNDT) EA-C: Law enforcement, forest governance and management (incl. improvement of national monitoring, detection, land information systems) 4

6 5. ER Program budget and financial plan Sources of funding All ER interventions financed by THE WORLD BANK Sustenta, MozFIP, MozDGM and MozBio 5 M USD asked as an advance payment for the BSM, particularly for organization of communities Contribution from GoM Political commitment In-kind contribution (staff salaries & time allowance) Loans taken out by GoM: 42.2 M USD (MozFip & Sustenta) ER payments The ER payments will not be used to finance ER interventions: No risk of double financing of activities ER payments will be used for scale up and benefit-sharing purposes FCPF Carbon Fund Mozambique ZILMP Final ER-PD - December 2017 Table Repartition 1: Repartition of the of credit the credit and grant and parts grant of parts ER Program s of ER Program s projects budgets projects budgets Credit Grant In USD Total budget Volume Percentage Volume Percentage Sustenta % 26 65% MozFIP % % MozDGM % % MozBio % %

7 6. Reference level used to design the ZILMP Reference period: Forest definition: Minimum surface of 1 ha, minimum height at maturity of 5 m and minimum coverage of tree of 30% (Falcão and Noa, Final Report on forest Definition, 2016) Method (IPCC, 2006): E = Activity Data x Emission Factors LULC changes detection using Collect Earth Tool. ( High resolution imagery from Google Earth AD: Extracted from national FREL/FRL (point sampling) EF: Specific forest inventory (eq. all. : Chave et al., 2015) Total deforestation during reference period : 350,610 ha Reference emission level: 10,220,797 tco 2 e/yr Reference periods Historical deforestation rate - in ha/yr Emissions related to AGB - in tco 2 e Emissions related to BGB - in tco 2 e Total reference emissions - in tco 2 e/yr Semi-deciduous forests 27,068 5,595,948 1,492,808 7,088,755 Evergreen forests 7,993 2,503, ,051 3,131,803 Mangoves Average over the reference period - baseline 35,062 8,099,881 2,120,916 10,220,797 7
