From HandWiki - Reading time: 1 min
In international law, a development safeguard or simply safeguard is a restraint on economic development to protect communities from development aggression.[1][2][3] In the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), safeguards are intended to protect indigenous peoples and other local communities with traditional knowledge of natural resource management within efforts towards reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.[4]
With UNFCC processes, safeguards became of concern in the 2010 United Nations Climate Change Conference.[5]
