In 2016, after undertaking a REDD+ feasibility study, Wildlife Works and Wildlife Alliance successfully established the Southern Cardamom REDD+ Project (Southern Cardamom) in partnership with Cambodia’s Ministry of Environment. Southern Cardamom is designed to promote climate change mitigation and adaptation, maintain biodiversity and create alternative livelihoods under the United Nations scheme of Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+).
