ABOUT THIS PROJECT

COMPREHENSIVE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION 

We led the design of a climate mitigation project to protect mangroves in Costa Rica for the GIZ BIOMARCC project. Our services included the elaboration of project objectives and activities, stakeholder analysis, threat and vulnerability analysis, and carbon standard comparison and gap analysis. Additionally, we developed a Project Design Document (PDD) that outlined baseline development, stakeholder consultation, leakage calculation, and carbon storage estimation, ensuring a comprehensive approach to conservation.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The GIZ BIOMARCC project focused on implementing conservation activities in the coastal areas of Costa Rica. This project aimed to protect mangroves through strategic conservation efforts, including alternative conservation activities and additional project steps to secure certification. Our thorough analysis and strategic planning provided the foundation for effective conservation and climate mitigation.

IMPACT AND BENEFITS

By developing a detailed PDD and conducting extensive analyses, we contributed to the protection and sustainable management of mangroves in Costa Rica. This project not only aimed at mitigating climate change but also supported biodiversity conservation and the resilience of coastal ecosystems. The integrated approach ensured that the project aligned with international standards and effectively addressed environmental and socio-economic challenges.
