Technocrats, financiers and carbon; a thorny alliance with communities and conservation?
Dr. Ian Deshmukh, Senior Associate at Tetra Tech and FCMC Senior Technical Advisor/Manager, presented an Africa Biodiversity Collaborative Group (ABCG) brown bag session. The presentation summarizes selected findings from a USAID/FCMC study, conducted in 2013, of four forest carbon projects in three eastern African countries that combine carbon credits with community and biodiversity objectives. The projects exhibit different ecological, governance, social, carbon standard and natural resources management circumstances, yet the comparative study reveals several generalizations.
