UPi and Futures Agribusiness (FAGRIB) are promoting carbon-credit financing projects in Africa to tap into the significant potential for generating carbon credits through reducing carbon emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, as well as through the sustainable management of forests and the conservation and enhancement of forest carbon stocks.

To this end, UPi and FAGRIB are collaborating with Terra Global Capital, a financing and investment company, to fund projects that reduce deforestation, improve forest management, and support afforestation/reforestation, agroforestry, climate-smart agriculture, and other sustainable landscape or rural-energy initiatives.
