Satoyama Initiative Launches Biodiversity-Based Carbon Methodologies
The Satoyama Mace Initiative (SMI), endorsed by UNU-IAS/IPSI, on January 8, 2026 launched a suite of carbon mitigation and sequestration methodologies aligned with the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. The approved package, cleared after an international review with a 52.9% approval rate, includes six specific methodologies and three modular MRV components. The framework targets socio-ecological production landscapes and aims to enable carbon finance access while safeguarding biodiversity and community benefits.
