then be examined. Prepare a summary document and presentation for stakeholder consultation in October. Action: AK to prepare necessary outputs by end September. Land tenure systems in different forest types and areas: An account of forest land tenure and use rights in the three following areas: Chittagong Hill Tracts Coastal zones Sal forest Action: HB to prepare this account by end September. Activity 1.2: Analysis of Drivers of Deforestation/Degradation and Constraints to the Forest Sector Analysis of proximate and ultimate drivers of losses to forest area and biomass: Develop a framework for analysis of drivers for each of the three key forest areas (CHT, coastal, sal), including (but not limited to) the following: Description of forest conditions and trends Identification of potential areas for improvement on current condictions/trends, in terms of the following (where relevant): Expansion of forest area Sustainable management of forests Forest biodiversity Forest-based livelihoods Identification of constraints to achieving these improvements in terms of: Governance (with reference to policy analysis in activity 1.1) Environment (climatic and environmental factors beyond human control) Socio-political (including conflict, cultural and social factors including gender roles, education) Economic (including local poverty levels, income distribution, income disparity, barriers to communication and trade) Reference to secondary sources is preferred (e.g. previous studies and analyses) where such sources are appropriate and available. A draft of this analysis will be discussed among the team during the mission in October. Action: HB and AK to develop the analysis framework by end of August, dividing responsibility between them. Completion of draft analysis by end of September. Activity 1.3: Mapping and Analysing Existing Initiatives and Projects Interviews with project staff: Identify existing projects and programmes which are explicitly concerned with forests and climate change. Identify key staff members of the project and interview to ascertain their views on: contribution of the project to a future national REDD+ programme
