  • Project description
    The primary objective of the Boa Fé REDD Project is to avoid the unplanned deforestation (AUD) of a subsection of the 432.690,25 ha project area, consisting of 100% Amazon rainforest, within a private property in the municipality of Apuí, southern Amazon. Beyond the project’s ecological and carbon benefits, a proportion of the carbon credits generated will be dedicated to improving the social and environmental conditions in the project region, specifically contributing to improving deforestation control, and developing environmental education and other social activities. The contribution to sustainability is being monitored through the application of the SOCIALCARBON® Standard. The Boa Fé REDD Project makes an important contribution to the conservation of Southern Amazon biodiversity and also to climate regulation in Brazil and South America. In addition to contributing to the long term conservation of the region, this project also has the function of establishing a barrier against the advancement of the Brazilian Arc of Deforestation, creating a Southern Amazon biodiversity corridor by adjoining to other protected areas in the region. The present REDD project is expected to avoid a predicted 92,543 ha of deforestation, equating to 57,808,000 tCO2e in emissions reductions over the 30-year project lifetime (01-January-2020 to 31-December-2049)
