Nature-Based Solutions and Carbon Markets

Nature-based solutions (NBS) and carbon markets are emerging as key mechanisms for responding to the climate crisis, biodiversity loss, and ecosystem degradation. These solutions recognize the economic value of ecosystem services and channel resources toward conservation, restoration, and sustainable land use.

 

Through mechanisms such as REDD+, voluntary and regulated carbon credits, or debt-for-nature swaps, incentives are created for climate action led by communities, governments, and private actors. The development of regulatory frameworks, digital traceability mechanisms, and governance structures are essential to ensuring environmental integrity and transparency.


ROA supports the design and implementation of carbon platforms, REDD+ schemes, debt-for-nature swaps, jurisdictional programs, and environmental exchanges. We develop regulatory frameworks, technical structures, and digital strategies to ensure the traceability, transparency, and environmental quality of transactions.
