Pre-COP31 delegates visited the Drawa Block Forest Conservation Project in Cakaudrove, Vanua Levu. This project, which began in 2011, is Fiji’s first verified community-owned REDD+ and carbon trading initiative. The project involves landowners selling carbon credits to generate sustainable income. Delegates present included Emmy Primadona, a project policy coordinator from Papua New Guinea, and officials from Solomon Islands and Fiji.
