Our work
From the field to certification: our climate protection journey
Our work began with comprehensive field analyses and forest inventories to determine the feasibility of a climate protection project. This thorough analysis formed the basis for an in-depth preliminary study that identified specific options for action. The project design document was then created, detailing all key measures and forming the basis for certification by TÜV Nord in accordance with Verra's guidelines.
Our collaboration with TÜV Nord enables us to validate and verify our measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Successful certification gives us the opportunity to obtain CO2 certificates that we can sell on the market. This income is crucial to securing the financing of our projects and ensuring their long-term success.
By selling CO2 certificates, we not only actively contribute to global climate protection, but also ensure the sustainable implementation of our projects. These certificates are proof of our efforts to bring about positive change and make a significant contribution to combating climate change.
Preliminary Study for a Climate Protection Project
1. Potential Measures for CO2 Sequestration:
We have analyzed how the forest can be utilized as a carbon sink by proposing measures such as afforestation, reforestation, or sustainable management.
2. Adaptation Strategies to Climate Change:
Considering the projected changes in climate, we have developed strategies to prepare the forest for future challenges, such as promoting resilient tree species or improving soil water retention capacity.
3. Economic and Social Aspects:
We have examined the economic and social benefits that a climate protection project could bring to the local population and surrounding communities, such as job creation in the forestry sector or the promotion of ecotourism.
4. Risk Assessment and Management Plans:
We have identified potential risks and challenges associated with the implementation of a climate protection project, as well as developed management plans to address these risks adequately and ensure the long-term effectiveness of the project.

On the Path to a Sustainable Future in Vietnam
Through close cooperation with our partners, we were able to secure a project area in Dak Lak to realise a pioneering pilot project in the region. Thanks to our partners' strong connections with the local authorities, the way was paved for this project.
In addition to our pilot project in Dak Lak province, we also have the opportunity to implement climate protection projects in the provinces of Ca Mau, Binh Dinh, and Kon Tum. This expansion of our scope is crucial as it allows us to increase our influence and revitalize even more fallow land, while promoting ecological sustainability in various regions of Vietnam.
The cooperation with our partners and the support of the provincial People's Committee are milestones on our way to implementing effective measures to protect the environment and combat climate change. We are determined to use this project area to further advance our efforts for a greener and more sustainable future.
Our pilot project and the following projects
In order to make a concrete contribution to climate protection and at the same time promote the conservation of biodiversity and social justice, we have decided to launch the pilot project in Dak Lak province. This province has an area of 1,500 hectares of wasteland that has been created by uncontrolled deforestation. This wasteland offers a unique opportunity for reforestation and ecosystem restoration.
Our main aim is to transform the wasteland into a healthy, living forest through reforestation measures. We place particular emphasis on promoting biodiversity by planting a variety of tree species that meet the local habitat requirements. By restoring the forest, we not only create valuable habitats for plant and animal species, but also contribute to the preservation of biodiversity.
At the same time, it is important to us to promote social justice and actively involve the local population in the project. We will create jobs to employ people from the region and give them the opportunity to participate in the planting, maintenance and protection of the forests. This not only helps to combat unemployment and improve people's living conditions, but also raises awareness of environmental protection and sustainability in the community.
To ensure the long-term success of the project, we will work closely with local authorities, communities and stakeholders. Together, we will develop management plans to ensure the long-term sustainability of the forest and address potential risks and challenges.
This pilot project in Dak Lak province is an important step on our path to climate protection and the promotion of biodiversity and social justice. We hope that it will not only serve as a model for other regions, but also make a positive contribution to protecting our environment and improving people's quality of life.
We are also looking forward to planning and implementing further projects in other provinces of Vietnam. We have recognized that the need for reforestation measures and environmental protection is urgent in many regions of the country and would like to further expand our commitment to climate protection, the promotion of biodiversity and social justice.
We have therefore decided to initiate further projects in the provinces of Ca Mau, Binh Dinh and Kon Tum. These provinces face similar challenges to Dak Lak, including the effects of land degradation, deforestation and the loss of natural habitats.
In Kon Tum, a province in the central highlands, the focus is on restoring forests and promoting agroforestry. This sustainable land use practice integrates trees into agricultural systems and helps to maintain soil fertility, reduce erosion and improve the microclimate.
In Ca Mau, a province in the Mekong Delta, we want to take action to protect and restore coastal forests. These forests play a crucial role in protecting coastal areas from storm surges and erosion and provide important habitats for a variety of plant and animal species.
In Binh Dinh, a province in central Vietnam, we want to focus on restoring forests and promoting sustainable land use practices. By reforesting fallow land and introducing organic farming methods, we want to help improve soil quality and support local communities.
