PACHAMA INSIGHTS

Community benefits

Assess the project’s potential to provide outstanding community benefits.

Why it matters
High-quality, well-designed forest carbon projects often have positive impacts on surrounding communities. From building schools to creating new jobs, these projects can have meaningful impacts that benefit local people and contribute to long-term project success.
Pachama’s evaluation approach
We review project information provided by the project developer across seven dimensions of potential benefits to local communities and provide insight into the total potential community benefits the project will provide.
How you can use community benefits insights
- Evaluate project community impacts before purchasing credits or making an investment.
