Afforestation and Reforestation Projects under the Clean Development Mechanism

This manual aims to assist stakeholders in developing afforestation and reforestation (A/R) projects under the clean development mechanism (CDM). It synthesizes the requirements with respect to  the project cycle, project documentation, project validation and registration, and monitoring and verification of A/R project activities. The manual is also intended to serve as a reference guide as it brings together in one place the rules and regulations applicable to CDM A/R projects and integrates the procedural, methodological and technical aspects of those projects.
