Regen Network Development has worked closely with indigenous communities, project developers, small holder farmers and climate finance institutions to facilitate the development of high integrity nature markets. While Regen Network is also a noted participant in the voluntary carbon market space, it has long sought to develop a full spectrum nature market ecosystem that deeply values bioregional ecosystem regeneration, full integration of local and indigenous communities into the design and governance of ecological assets and verified ecological impact in all of its forms.
Mariana Sarmiento, CEO of Terrasos said, “Our partnership with Regen Network is crucial in building a decentralized, high-integrity biodiversity credit market. The early demand for our Tebu credits reflects growing support for performance-based ecosystem restoration and conservation projects, with funding already making a tangible impact on Colombia’s most endangered and underfunded ecosystems. Together, we’re driving the growth of biodiversity credits, ensuring that investments directly support nature-positive outcomes.”
Hannah Simons of ERA Brazil said, “We need another market mechanism to channel money into conservation that is not the REDD+ mechanism under the carbon markets. We are offering this new alternative where biodiversity stewardship is at the core and can be easily applied by IPCL’s who are protecting umbrella-species habitat. We are building something inclusive, innovative, and technology-driven that harnesses the amazing platform hosted by our proud partner, Regen Network.”
Gregory Landua, Regen Network Development CEO said, “Connecting the often unheralded regenerative work of global land stewards and indigenous communities to capital seeking verified and comprehensive ecological regeneration is why we are here. This early demand for biodiversity credits is already underwriting important ecological repair from the Amazon headwaters to rainforests of Colombia.”
