Ecosystem Marketplace and the Katoomba Group

At this event, Ecosystem Marketplace and the Katoomba Group will present trends in the forest carbon markets and announce the launch of the Ecosystem Marketplace Forest Carbon Portal website. After preliminary findings are presented, a panel of experts, including project developers, standards organizations, and buyers will share their own insights into the current state of the market for forest-based offsets. Experiences and key lessons will be showcased from the Katoomba Ecosystem Services Incubator’s forest carbon projects in Latin America and Africa.  For more information, contact Kate Hamilton:  khamilton at forest-trends.org.
