The Rainforest Alliance works to conserve biodiversity and ensure sustainable livelihoods by transforming land-use practices, business practices, and consumer behavior. The Rainforest Alliance believes the best way to keep forests standing is by ensuring that it is profitable for businesses and communities to do so, and therefore works to help realize greater economic benefits through ecosystems protection.
Code REDD and the Rainforest Alliance have partnered to advance approaches towards sustainable supply chains that Reduce Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+). In addition to articles and information dissemination, this evolving partnership will continue to engage the private sector on the overlapping priorities of sustainable supply and REDD+.
Code REDD and Rainforest Alliance co-published an article on the importance of REDD+ efforts in conjunction with sustainable supply chain initiatives titled “Giving credit where credit is due: Using REDD+ finance to enhance Sustainable Forest Management.”
