Project Summary
Objectives
The project's core objective is halting deforestation, preserving rainforests, and mitigating global carbon emissions, thus enhancing the welfare of the local communities and the broader East Sepik Province community. Evolving from traditional commercial logging, the project now emphasizes carbon offset strategies, sustainable logging practices, and diversified livelihood opportunities, including commercial crops and cattle rearing. By adhering to Forest Stewardship Council certification standards, Pacific Energy Alliance aims to implement sustainable logging practices, alongside selling carbon credits globally to fund community development initiatives. Beyond economic impacts, the project seeks to leave a lasting legacy, recognizing both humanitarian and environmental imperatives, aiming to leave the world in a better state for future generations.
The REDD+ initiative aims to support community-led land use planning that balances conservation with livelihood needs. By promoting agroforestry, sustainable harvesting, and alternative income-generating activities, the project seeks to reduce deforestation drivers while enhancing local resilience.
