  • Project description
    The main activity of the CIKEL Brazilian Amazon REDD APD Project is the cancelation of the planned deforestation activities and decision to instead conserve the forest area and continue limited forest management activities in the area under FSC certification with Low Impact Logging (SFMLIL) practices. Also, the company is intensifying and improving its practices to support the sustainable social development, maintaining and improving the biodiversity monitoring at the RCC in the framework of FCS certification and REDD activities. The financial incentives from the sale of VCUs permit the project activity to be competitive with alternative business scenarios like livestock and allow CKBV to cancel its legal forest conversion plans and maintain its forest management activities.
