Governing Low-Carbon Landscapes: A Systematic Review of Incentives, Spatial Planning, and Community Forest Management

This dataset supports the systematic review article "Governing Low-Carbon Landscapes: A Systematic Review of Incentives, Spatial Planning, and Community Forest Management", which synthesises evidence from 13 empirical studies on the integration of incentive mechanisms (e.g., REDD+, carbon credits, PES, tax relief), spatial planning, and community-based forest management practices for low-carbon development across 11 countries. The dataset includes the PRISMA 2020 checklist, PRISMA flow diagram, criteria for inclusion and exclusion of studies (Table 1), databases and last search dates (Table 2), risk of bias assessment raw data using MMAT 2018 (Supplementary Document 3), summary characteristics of the 13 included studies (Table 4), synthesis of key success factors and barriers (Table 5), and the data extraction form.
