THE REDD+ PROJECT
Tropical deforestation is a major driver of carbon emissions. Halting deforestation could potentially contribute over one-third of the total emissions reductions needed by 2030.
Tropical forests also amongst the planet’s most biodiverse ecosystems and support 66 of the most threatened species on earth.

PARTNERS
Together with our partners at the Ministry of Environment and Wildlife Works Carbon the project will be accredited under Voluntary Carbon (VCS) and Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) Standards. This will ensure that the project produces genuine carbon emission reductions and respects the rights of Indigenous People and Local Communities, whilst protecting one of the world’s richest biodiversity.
