US EditionEverland in partnership with BNP Paribas announces $50 million capital markets initiative to launch first Indigenous-led Amazon forest conservation projects under Equitable Earth Standard
- On April 30, 2025, Everland and BNP Paribas announced a $50 million bond initiative in New York City to launch Indigenous-led forest conservation projects in the Amazon.
- The initiative responds to barriers in early-stage funding for REDD+ projects and aims to mobilize billions of dollars by aligning private capital with Indigenous stewardship.
- The financing will support 20 community-led projects under the Equitable Earth Standard, focusing on priority landscapes known as the Jaguar Corridor to protect biodiversity and Indigenous territories.
- The projects have a 40-year lifespan and are expected to generate over $1 billion in carbon credit sales, which will be shared fairly with Indigenous communities to ensure financial sustainability.
- This initiative, supported by Global Citizen and aligned with President Lula's goals, creates a direct financing path for Indigenous peoples to protect forests, sustain cultures, and advance global climate commitments.
