Empowering Communities and Ensuring Integrity
We acknowledge that carbon markets have faced criticism, including the violation of Indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs) rights, forced displacement, and greenwashing. To address these challenges, we are trialling new approaches that prioritise local communities’ rights, ensuring our projects are community-led and protected by robust safeguards. Our commitment is to develop with integrity.
We support organisations, governments, and investors in unlocking sustainable value through expertly designed carbon projects and advisory services. Our expertise lies in leveraging carbon markets to fund impactful, community-based projects that benefit local communities and combat the global climate crisis. Whether it’s launching new initiatives or scaling existing ones, we provide innovative solutions across diverse regions and sectors.
