"The manual shares hands-on experiences from field programs and presents the essential
practical and theoretical steps, methods and tools to estimate the opportunity costs of
REDD+ at the national level. The manual addresses the calculation of costs and benefits of
the various land use alternatives in relation to their carbon stocks. As required data are
generally not readily available, the manual also includes information on data collection,
analysis and evaluation techniques."
