The draft “Beyond Carbon Benefits” certification under the Architecture for REDD+ Transactions marks a major shift in carbon markets by integrating social, cultural, biodiversity, and forest service co-benefits – co-designed with Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLC) – to ensure REDD+ initiatives are more equitable, inclusive, and effective beyond carbon accounting alone. Representatives from IPLC organisations explain why they chose to co-lead the design of a new certification, and how they think it represents a shift, both in terms of how forests are valued, and also how market instruments are designed.

Now, atmospheric monitoring technology offers a path to restoring market integrity, investment, and climate impact through more accurate, transparent verification.
