EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN THE SEMINAR


Environmental Policy Roundtable
Friday, December 10, 2010
Room 1113 Van Munching Hall, 12:15 - 1:30pm




This presentation is on a report of lessons learned in an effort to inform project developers and policymakers by the BioCF while designing and implementing CDM forest projects. This publication aims to shed light on opportunities the CDM offers to the forestry sector and also on challenges encountered by project developers when complying with the regulatory requirements.



The BioCF, housed within the World Bank’s Carbon Finance Unit, is a public-private initiative mobilizing resources for pioneering projects that sequester or conserve carbon in forest and agro-ecosystems, mitigating climate change and improving rural livelihoods. Leticia GuimarĂ£es, MSc, MPP, is a consultant with BioCF. She graduated from the Maryland School of Public Policy with a concentration in Environmental Policy and an Ecological Economics Certificate.

We look forward to seeing you at our discussion.
