General

Using a variety of instruments (forest protection, sustainable forest management, reforestation), the purpose of the planned project is to sustainably protect an entire forest ecosystem in the Russian Far East on a model basis. A further goal is to examine to what extent emission permits can be earned with these measures. The regionally collected findings and approaches will subsequently be integrated into the forestry sector at national level and, as far as possible, the generation of emission reduction units will be established as a model for financing improved forest management.
