Avoided Deforestation
Protect high‑carbon stock forests from conversion, generating REDD+ credits with exceptional biodiversity and community co‑benefits.
Programme Overview
Avoided Deforestation projects, often referred to as REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation), are among the most impactful and established carbon programmes globally. By protecting standing forests that are at risk of clearance, we prevent the release of vast quantities of stored carbon while safeguarding critical ecosystems.
These programmes deliver verified emissions reductions that are independently audited against the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and the Climate, Community & Biodiversity (CCB) Standards, ensuring both environmental integrity and positive social outcomes.
Conservation efforts protect high-carbon stock forests across Nigeria.
