ARLINGTON, VA — November 7, 2024 — The Secretariat of the Architecture for REDD+ Transactions (ART) is pleased to announce that the second TREES Concept submitted by the Government of Peru has been published on the ART Registry. This TREES Concept is submitted in partnership with the Indigenous Organizations AIDESEP, CONAP and ANECAP for the Indigenous Jurisdictional REDD+ program. The total number of jurisdictions registered with ART is now twenty-three.

The publishing of the TREES Concept is the first step to register a jurisdictional REDD+ program under ART. Once TREES Registration documents have been submitted and the results independently verified by an accredited verification body, the ART Board may approve the issuance of serialized TREES credits to the participating jurisdiction.
