Getting REDD to work locally: lessons learned from integrated conservation and development projects (2010, background): “The Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) has failed to yield substantial benefits for small and poor landholders, despite having sustainable development as a stated objective (Boyd et al., 2007).”
Governing the Clean Development Mechanism: Global Rhetoric versus Local Realities in Carbon Sequestration Projects (2009, background): “Boyd et al (2007b) suggest that project design will have to adapt to fit with priorities set out by local organizations, even if it presents a barrier to project development in many locations.”
