Analyst briefing
Activities & scale PROJECT LESTARI covers ~60,000 hectares in North Kalimantan and sits in Verra's pipeline (not yet registered/issuing). The activity mix implied by VM0007 + VM0048 is unplanned-deforestation REDD combined with avoided planned conversion of natural forest inside an oil-palm-licensable landscape. North Kalimantan is a frontier province neighboring Sabah/Sarawak and has been an active palm and peat clearing hotspot, including repeated CRR-flagged clearances by PT Bengalon Jaya Lestari subsidiaries and PT Pipit Citra Perdana 1.
