Tanzania is currently home to seven live NbS projects, which cover more than 370,000 hectares, but the VCM in the country is poised for extreme growth. A further five projects covering 2.6m hectares of land are pending verification with Verra (AlliedOffsets, 2024).
This webinar uses our audit-grade Tanzania land cover dataset to explore natural capital trends since 2010, how the country’s unique ecology creates data challenges, and also a review of one of the country’s REDD+ projects and its impact in preventing deforestation.
