Join us as we walk through the impact that VM0048 is set to have on REDD+ projects, and how project originators can prepare for the changes.
Our carbon standards experts will break down:
- How VM0048 is changing the origination process
- Why Verra made the move to jurisdictional baselines
- How deforestation risk maps are created and used for baseline calculations
- What is the potential impact on project additionality and how you can prepare
Using Kenya as a real-life case study – a country with significant growth potential in the Forestry and Land use projects – we’ll be sharing how a new project could be impacted under the new methodology.
