Reaping the harvest: catch risk early in IFM
This webinar will run at 08:30 PT / 11:30 EDT / 16:30 BST.
Improved Forest Management (IFM) projects - designed to increase carbon storage and reduce GHG emissions through sustainable forestry - are playing a growing role in carbon markets, generating over a quarter of global forestry credits.
IFM is expanding globally, with projects increasingly being established in the Americas, Europe, and southeast Asia. The sector is of particular interest in the US, home to one of the world’s largest timber industries. Around 75% of outstanding IFM credits, and more than half of IFM retirements, come from US-based projects.
With the ICVCM recently approving three IFM methodologies for Core Carbon Principles (CCP) eligibility, we expect a rise in interest in these project types - but understanding the variation in quality at the project level is essential to catching risk early.
Join our webinar on 18 September to hear straight from our experts on how to find and manage these risks. Linus Hiscox, Lead Carbon Ratings Scientist & IFM Lead, and Dr Fernanda Coelho de Souza, Senior Carbon Ratings Scientist, will highlight:
Common drivers of IFM project quality
Specific ways to optimise project design
How to score and shortlist projects ahead of a rating
Whether you’re developing projects, screening investment opportunities, or buying credits, register today if you’re feeling stumped on IFM project quality.
The webinar will run at 09:30 BST 16:30 SGT for attendees in EMEA and APAC, and again at 08:30 PT / 11:30 EDT / 16:30 BST for those in the Americas.
