Project partners

• The Autonomous Regional Corporation for the
  Rionegro - Nare Region (CORNARE) U 124.000
• Swiss Federal Laboratories for Material Testing
  and Research (EMPA) U 88.300
• International Tropical Timber Organization
  (ITTO) U 566.000
• With the support of the Colombian Ministry
  for Environment, Housing and Territorial
  Development
• Duration of Design Phase 22 months

Climate Change in the ITTO

• Within the ITTA objectives the necessity to
  enhance forest values is recognized
• Within the Yokohama Action Plan 2002 - 2006 both,
  mitigation and adaptation with regard to climate
  change are considered
• ITTO project work can contribute to further
  methodological development and proper application
  of modalities

4
Project region Watershed for 2 hidroelectric
dams

• 30.000 ha declared for conservation

• 42.000 ha as forests apt

• More than 10.000 families

• 90 Private owned, mostly small farmers

5
Project rationale
Test a methodology for the Financing of long-term
Sustainable Management of Forests (SMF)
Knowledge and Technologies for the Sustainable
Management of Forests (SMF)
CDM (reforestation y afforestation)
National and international investors into SMF
Decision making process through the local
communities
6
Project results

• Management Plan for the Sub-region
• CDM component (reforestation)
• non-CDM component (conservation and enrichment)
• Investment and Financing Plan for he Society for
  SMF in the Sub-region of San Nicolás
• Regional Forum as a vehicle to participative
  project cycle (inc. Gos, NGOs and private sector)

7
Project outputs

Project activities
11
Carbon quantification

• A) Determination of CDM eligible lands (1990)
• Comparison of satellite images of 1986 and 2000

12
Carbon quantification

• B) Modelling of net carbon flows per ha.
• ECO2ForestryTM Model
• Project life-time 40 years (two 20 yr rotations)
• Per ha baseline maintenance of pastures

13
Carbon quantification

• C) Discounting of project baseline from p/ha
  results

14
Carbon quantification

• D) Multiplication of p/ha results with planting
  schedule

15
Carbon quantification

• E) Overall result

16
Carbon quantification

• F) Different proposed methods to address
  non-permanence included in modelling
• Stock change (40 years)
• Stock change (21 years)
• Average storage
• TCERs (quantified at end of 5 year period)
• TCERs (quantified as average over 5 year period)

17
Risk management

• Buffer on CER (15)
• Replanting fund (2 of project costs)
• Contingencies (5 of project costs)

18
Monitoring plan

• For both eligible and non-eligible lands
• Key elements
• Project activities
• Baseline
• Leakage
• Indicators of (other) environmental impacts
• Indicators of social impacts

19
Financial Instruments for the
Commercialization of Forest Environmental Services

• Certified Emission Reductions (CER)
• Verified Emission Reductions (VER)
• Voluntary market (2 per tCO2e)
• Environmental shares (ES)
• Environmental and Social Recognition (ESR)

20
Environmental Shares

• Represent all forest environmental services apart
  from water production and carbon sequestration
• Are quantified as 1 ES per tonne of CO2e
• Give added value to CERs (product CER)
• Are added on to VER (product VERES)
• Give possibility to obtain ESRs

Conclusions

• Activities with most social and environmental
  benefits may be least cost-effective
• Delegates should be aware that decisions taken on
  modalities can have an important impact on the
  financial feasability of these activities
• EB and COP/MOP should consider the provisions
  given in the Marrakech accord to avoid systematic
  inequities
