ence of the UN Convention on Climate Change, which will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2009.

"In the next fifteen months, the world will have to make a choice," said Lvold. "We can continue to ignore the legitimate rights of forest dwellers, which will exacerbate conflict in forests and make REDD ineffective. Or we can learn from the lessons of the past, recognize the property and human rights of forest dwellers, and almost immediately start reaping the benefits."
