Analysis

A VCS afforestation project in Paraguay with a confirmed investment-test additionality assessment and a 15% buffer pool, but weakened by a project-specific baseline, a thin 0% leakage justification, and multiple contradictions across verification reports on safeguards, FPIC, and grievance mechanisms. The ERR figures are internally consistent for the monitored period, yet the PDD's ex-ante estimate and the verified figure sit on very different bases, making over-crediting risk difficult to fully rule out.
