Projects
Two projects in active development
Every project we take into development has cleared the same threshold: community tenure security, ecological integrity, and a credible pathway to a recognised certification standard. Mnazi Bay, home to our Kaboni Yetu programme, is our proof of concept, funded and in readiness-phase execution. Kunduchi Eco Park is the first expansion of the portfolio.
Two sites on the Tanzanian coast
Mnazi Bay sits inside the Mnazi Bay-Ruvuma Estuary Marine Park in Mtwara Region, near the Mozambique border. Kunduchi Eco Park is on the northern Dar es Salaam coastline, roughly 400 km north. Base map © OpenStreetMap contributors; loading it fetches map images from OpenStreetMap's servers.
One flagship, one in feasibility
Kaboni Yetu
The Mnazi Bay Blue Carbon Programme: 4,030 hectares of mangrove across 15 villages in Mtwara, dual-track Plan Vivo and NCMC certification, funded by ORRAA and the UK Blue Planet Fund. The template the rest of the portfolio is built on.
Open Kaboni Yetu →Kunduchi Eco Park
A multi-revenue coastal enterprise on Dar es Salaam's northern coastline: eco-tourism, biodiversity credits, and nature-based products alongside carbon. A deliberate test of different conditions from Mnazi Bay, not a replication of it.
Open Kunduchi Eco Park →How We Source Projects
Three non-negotiable criteria
Community Tenure Clarity
The communities stewarding the ecosystem must hold clear, documented rights and a governance route to consent, benefit-sharing, and long-term participation.
Ecological Integrity
The target habitat must be ecologically intact enough, or restorable enough, to support a credible carbon and co-benefit case under scrutiny.
Credible Certification Pathway
There must be a realistic route to at least one recognised standard. Sites that satisfy all three conditions enter a structured feasibility process before any development commitment.
Geographic scope: coastal Tanzania and the wider Western Indian Ocean. The sourcing pipeline is active; future projects will be published when they reach confirmed feasibility.
