The REDD+ Unified Indigenous Reserve-Selva de Mataven Project (REDD+ RIU-SM) aims to develop a participatory process to establish an integrated forest and land management system for the reserve to ensure its sustainability and mitigate conservation threats, particularly by avoiding deforestation through the implementation of a REDD+ Project (Reduction of emissions from deforestation and forest degradation + conservation of carbon stocks, sustainable management of forests, and enhancement of forest reserves in developing countries) that provides compensation payments for ecosystem services. The technology corresponds to a REDD project in accordance with the standards established by the VCS. Specifically, an activity “Avoiding Unplanned Deforestation and Degradation (AUDD)”. The Indigenous Reserve is located east of the high plain of the Colombian Orinoco region in the transition belt between the Orinoco savannas and the Amazon forests, in the Vichada Department.
