dc.description.abstract "The concept of equity is increasingly salient in the design of funding mechanisms and multilevel governance regimes for environmental conservation. In the context of Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+), a climate change mitigation instrument based on payments for the maintenance and enhancement of carbon stocks of tropical forests, the manner in which equity is understood will be of critical importance for the impacts and acceptance of REDD+ interventions. Although the concept has been extensively studied in the academic literature, in policy debates related to REDD+, however, equity is often described as an issue without further conceptualization. In this paper, we provide a conceptual framework based on an institutional logics approach for analysing the various underlying rationales in the equity in REDD+ debate. We then apply it to highlight how actors involved in the design of national REDD+ governance structures in Tanzania utilize the concept of equity in proposing very different governance models while striving for ostensibly similar equitable outcomes." en_US
