Reporting Period: 2010-07 to 2020-06

Environmental Metrics

Total Carbon Emissions:457,750.25 tCO2e/year (average annual reduction)

ESG Focus Areas

  • Climate Change
  • Biodiversity
  • Social Development

Environmental Achievements

  • Avoided deforestation resulting in an average annual reduction of 457,750.25 tCO2-e over the first 10 years (2010-2020).

Social Achievements

  • Promoted sustainable economic activities (agroforestry, aquaculture, low-impact gold mining, sustainable forest management, chestnut processing, palm tree management) among local communities, reducing pressure on forest resources.
  • Strengthened RNTAMB and PNBS surveillance and control systems through infrastructure improvements, ranger training, and community surveillance committees.

Governance Achievements

  • Established conservation agreements with local communities to protect critical areas.
  • Enhanced forest governance through collaboration with SERNANP and regional authorities.

Climate Goals & Targets

Environmental Challenges

  • Illegal gold mining and deforestation driven by increasing gold prices and improved accessibility via the South Interoceanic Highway.
  • Limited financial resources for effective conservation efforts.
  • Weak institutional capacity and enforcement of environmental regulations.
  • Lack of organization and capacity among some local communities.
  • Land tenure issues and conflicts.
  • Traditional unsustainable land-use practices.
Mitigation Strategies
  • Promoting sustainable economic alternatives to reduce pressure on forest resources.
  • Strengthening surveillance and control systems.
  • Establishing conservation agreements with local communities.
  • Collaborating with SERNANP and regional authorities to improve forest governance.
  • Providing technical assistance and training to local communities.
