OUR CURRENT PARTNERSHIP


We are proud to partner with the world's largest Amazon Nut (Castaña) conservation project.

Operating for over 15 years, the REDD+ Castañeros Project spans more than 600,000 hectares of the Peruvian Amazon in Madre de Dios.

The project is operated by Bosques Amazónicos (BAM), a Peruvian NatureTech company with 19 years of experience protecting and restoring Amazon forests.

Developed in partnership with FEPROCAMD, the federation representing local castaña producers, the project works alongside more than 700 families whose livelihoods are intrinsically linked to keeping the forest standing.

Through carbon finance, conservation and the sustainable harvesting of castaña, the project protects one of the world’s most important ecosystems while supporting a forest economy that gives local communities an economic reason to preserve it.

Every carbon credit represents one verified tonne of CO₂ emissions avoided, with credits registered and traceable under the Verra Verified Carbon Standard (VCS).

An Introduction to Forest & Land Based Projects

What do they do?

Forest and land-based carbon projects work by protecting and restoring natural ecosystems that store large amounts of carbon in trees, soils, and vegetation. This includes preventing deforestation through REDD+ initiatives, restoring degraded forests through reforestation, regenerating soils via improved agricultural practices, and protecting high-carbon ecosystems such as mangroves, peatlands, and wetlands.

By keeping existing carbon locked in place or increasing the amount of carbon absorbed from the atmosphere, these projects not only reduce emissions but also support biodiversity, water systems, and the communities who act as long-term guardians of the land.

High Integrity Projects

High-integrity carbon projects go beyond counting tonnes of carbon. They deliver verified, measurable climate impact while investing in the people and ecosystems that make that impact last. These projects are independently verified, transparently managed, and designed to support local communities through fair livelihoods, long-term stewardship, and environmental safeguards, ensuring climate action that is not only effective today, but sustainable for generations to come.

REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation)


What is REDD+?

REDD+ is a UN-backed framework that incentivises developing countries to protect and sustainably manage forests by generating results-based payments for verified emissions reductions.

We support REDD+ projects, because they go beyond avoided deforestation to include forest conservation, sustainable forest management and enhancement of forest carbon stocks. Furthermore, they also embed social and environmental safeguards, recognising the rights of Indigenous Peoples and local communities while delivering climate, biodiversity and livelihood benefits.

About the Projects we Partner with. FAQs

Where are our projects located?

We are currently focused on the Amazon, beginning with the Castañeros Project in Madre de Dios, Peru, developed in partnership with BAM. This is a region of extraordinary ecological importance and one of the most critical carbon sinks on the planet.

Our goal is to curate a portfolio of high-integrity projects that we have rigorously assessed and, wherever possible, visited ourselves. We are actively reviewing additional projects to expand our portfolio responsibly, ensuring every project we onboard meets our standards for environmental integrity, transparency and community impact.
