  • Biodiversity inventories help us improve fauna habitats.
  • Based on inventory information we issue carbon credits.
  • Restoration activities guarantee the natural capital recomposition.

Comprehensive Community Approach

  • Unoccupied lands
  • Certification process for carbon credits with the additionality of climate, community and biodiversity
  • Communication strategies with local people for sustainable exploitation of natural resources

Site Security & Crime Prevention

  • Patrols around the perimeter and on the roads in the site.
  • Activities to protect flora & fauna and their habitat.
