Description
Awai Project is an initiative for conserving Peruvian Amazon forests in San Martín, Loreto, and Ucayali, vital areas for thousands who depend on these ecosystems. Led by Dismart Amazon Carbon and eGreen, the project protects up to 500,000 hectares through agreements with forestry concession holders to reduce timber extraction. In deforested areas, reforestation restores natural value, improves forest quality, and ensures carbon storage in plants and soils, preventing its release into the atmosphere. Conservation methodologies will also enhance preserved areas, preserving ecological integrity and boosting carbon sequestration. Proceeds from carbon credit sales fund these conservation and restoration activities. Awai Project emphasizes inclusive, democratic participation to promote sustainable development for the Amazon and its people.
