Contributing to Public Policy

Together with our partners, we are working tirelessly to foster cooperation with governments, policy makers, parliament members, companies, organised communities, universities, and civil society organisations to foster cooperation in carbon markets policy making. 

We firmly believe that clear rules and legal security have the power to unlock the billions of dollars of investment so needed to accelerate the preservation and restoration of our natural ecosystems so we could reach our global climate, biodiversity, and rural development objectives.

As such, we are a proud founding member of the Peruvian Carbon Market Association (Asociación Peruana de Carbono - APC), and we are working on similar initiatives in other regions.   

  Our mission is to support the development of the carbon market in Peru, particularly the forest carbon. We do that by generating highly specialized technical knowledge to support policy makers to develop a favorable regulatory framework so that, with the support of national and international public and private cooperation, create a local supply and demand market for emissions reductions and removals, connected to other regional and global carbon markets (Singapore, Japan, China, Europe, U.S states, Colombia, Mexico, Brazil, etc).
 

By doing so, APC looks to attract investment to carbon abatement projects in Peru, with particular attention to the Nature-Based Solutions sector, allowing the export of emissions reductions and removals certificates generated in Peru to the global carbon markets, generating the billions of dollars in investment needed for the long-term effective conservation and restoration of Peru's forests and natural ecosystems and the sustainable development of Peruvians, particularly those living in poverty in rural places.
