Boosting opportunities and alliances in the Peruvian voluntary market ecosystem
The Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) in Peru has a large
potential, but faces challenges such as lack of transparency, limited
access to financing and training for its actors.
To boost its development, Profonanpe is developing different
mechanisms that contribute to strengthening and energizing this ecosystem.
