Summary “This is a well conceptualized, prepared, and presented R-PP. The approach to readiness captured here appears to be appropriate to addressing the major drivers of degradation and generating economic opportunities. ( … ) The text is thorough and especially well documented. It takes care of the related policy and legislative framework of the country and the wider aim of developing Chile’s pathway towards a low carbon economy that includes as a major element the forest sector.
