Zambian REDD+ Developer Awarded ICROA Accreditation in Successful Audit Results

BCP is exceptionally proud to be an ICROA (International Carbon Reduction and Offset Alliance) Accredited Organization. For over a decade, ICROA has been a voice in the voluntary carbon market, providing quality assurance, and guidance on emissions reductions and high-quality carbon credit usage.

As one of Africa’s leading REDD+ Project developers, BCP is delighted to be recognized by ICROA for the environmental integrity of our organization, specifically around best practices that verify that our carbon management strategies and those of our clients lead to impactful climate action.

BCP currently manages two established REDD+ projects in Zambia, one in the developmental stage in Zambia; a project in the early implementation stage in Mozambique; and one project in the pre-feasibility stage in Angola. Our goal by 2028 is to protect 14,608,305ha of threatened biodiversity significant forests and ecosystems, providing safe wildlife corridors for animals across the Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA). At the same time, aiming to support an estimated 1,350,000+ beneficiaries through revenue from climate finance and scalable solutions to the climate crisis, such as climate-smart agriculture.  

BCP’s projects currently support 16 of the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals (Life Below Water, Number 14 is the only one not supported currently).

BCP’s UN-REDD Programme + strategy enables private-sector businesses to quickly and easily fight the root causes of carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation. Our client’s purchase of offsets will keep carbon stored in trees, and out of the atmosphere, and we take this role of guiding our buyers very seriously. Our strategy also falls in line with the Paris Climate Agreement, a global initiative to stop and reduce climate change. 

Purchasing offsets makes you a part of the solution.

As an accredited organization, BCP will undergo an annual independent audit to ensure compliance with the ICROA Code of Best Practice.

We believe in the continuous evolution of the science of climate change, and how it can effectively scale nature-based solutions to tackle the urgent issue of climate change that we all face. BCP is guided by the quality of our carbon credits, which are underpinned by integrity, transparency, and quality.
