When: Sep 11, 2012
Where: Virtual
Organized By: ACR
Webinar speakers will provide an overview of the ACR Nested REDD+ Standard, including technical and safeguards requirements, and will solicit comments and feedback from webinar participants. Speakers include Dr. Sandra Brown and Dr. Nancy Harris of Winrock’s Ecosystem Services group as well as Nicholas Martin and Mary Grady of ACR.
The ACR Nested REDD+ Standard provides registration requirements for project-level REDD+ activities – including conservation of forest carbon stocks, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest carbon stocks – following baseline, leakage, monitoring and other technical requirements developed at the jurisdictional level provided these meet certain minimum criteria. The ACR Nested REDD+ Standard also defines social and environmental safeguard requirements for registration of REDD+ projects.
