REDD+ Cerrado is the result of work done in Legado Verdes do Cerrado, a 32,000-hectare private sustainable development reserve in Niquelândia, Goiás, managed by Reservas Votorantim.

It’s the first carbon project in the Brazilian Cerrado, developed in partnership with Companhia Brasileira de Alumínio (CBA) and the consultancies Ecosystem Regeneration Associates (ERA) and ECCON Soluções Ambientais.

• The project is registered with Verra under number 2465. You can check it out at registry.verra.org/app/projectDetail/VCS/2465

Reliability
and quality

REDD+ Cerrado is part of the Reservas Votorantim (rV) portfolio of carbon projects, which already has another pioneering project: PSA Carbonflor. This is an unprecedented methodology for generating carbon credits via Payment for Environmental Services in the Atlantic Forest.

The territories managed by Reservas Votorantim where carbon projects are implemented provide quality, transparency, and reliability to the credits, making them a safe and lasting investment.

Socio-environmental
co-benefits

Legado Verdes do Cerrado is the first private reserve for sustainable development of the biome in Brazil. It’s 32 thousand hectares in size and 80% of its territory is in a high degree of conservation. The remaining 20% is dedicated to new economy businesses and conventional economies with differentiated production and management integrated with nature. The project helps achieve several UN Sustainable Development Goals, including 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 15, and 17. It does this by supporting programs and research projects related to conserving Cerrado biodiversity, reducing climate change, and protecting biodiversity and natural resources. It also helps promote sustainable development in the region.

We made an exciting discovery: 28 new plant species!

We’ve also published more than 20 scientific papers on Cerrado biodiversity in partnership with research and teaching institutions.

We have the largest Cerrado seed bank in the country.

We’ve also protected three springs, including the Traíras river, which is one of the most important in the north of Goiás.

We’ve donated over 100,000 native plant seedlings for reforestation projects in degraded areas and urban afforestation.

The Reserve acts as an ecological corridor for endangered species, such as jaguars and the vinegar dog.

We’ve also formed partnerships with more than 50 private companies, civil society organizations, research institutions, and academic institutions.
