Understanding our impact in 2023

2023 marked another record year of growth and impact for Carbon Tanzania. Our three operational, ground-breaking forest conservation projects delivered $6.9 million to some of the most remote communities in Tanzania.

Alongside our current projects, we continue to expand our efforts through the development of new carbon assets that will increase the forest lands protected by our partner communities to over 2,000,000Ha.

In 2023, Carbon Tanzania took the first steps in learning to listen more deeply to our local community partners by conducting an extensive social impact assessment of the three villages who participated in the original Yaeda Valley REDD project.
