How it works
This VPA intends to do afforestation/reforestation activities in the district of Udaipur which lies in Rajasthan, India. It will be implemented with local NGOs and farm producer organisations. The project seeks to create carbon sinks, restore the local ecology and biodiversity while delivering significant socio-economic benefits to the local communities involved. The intent is to develop a community led afforestation / reforestation model on barren, waste, farm or common land, for ensuring long-term carbon removal.
