Verra and Panama Sign MOU to Support Development of a National Carbon Market

The MOU also covers training activities about the VCS Program, the VCS Jurisdictional and Nested REDD+ Framework (JNR), and the Verra Registry. Future training topics will likely include VCS Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (AFOLU) methodologies, which are highly applicable in Panama. So far, the audience of these trainings has been Panama government representatives who have been tasked with designing national carbon pricing instruments. Future trainings may address the interests of project proponents and developers, prospective validation/verification bodies, and buyers, retailers, and traders.
