We begin by screening for quality carbon projects locally and globally.  Projects that meet our strict criteria are then assessed on the key factors that determine natural capital value.  This entails a detailed assessment of the methodology used for carbon sequestration, the jurisdiction, estimated level of carbon removal – and importantly the community and biodiversity co-benefits.

Gaia ensures that each project within its model portfolio continues to deliver the expected carbon sequestration level targets through quarterly updates.  We regularly engage with carbon project managers and utilise latest satellite imagery and change detection techniques to independently determine carbon sequestration progress.  Our natural capital model portfolios are regularly updated to ensure quality control.
