Hon. Donkor Fuseini demonstrates how offset projects in the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) offset emissions - with direct benefits for the climate and local people. The focus is on nature-based solutions such as reforestation and forest conservation. Through partnerships between actors from the Global South and North, these projects are realising their full potential, driving sustainable development in Ghana and opening up new international alliances.
