Community benefit activities target the needs of local producer communities holistically — providing them with the means to support sustainable nature-based projects, while actively contributing to their personal and family well-being.

Carbon Equity
As carbon credits rise in price over time, it is important to recognize the contributions of local communities to their market value — as farmers and producers have invested significant time and resources into the carbon sequestration process.
To properly compensate producers, we have introduced the concept of “Carbon Equity” — where participating communities benefit from future price increases of carbon assets through additional investments into livelihood improvements.
Engaging Local Communities
PUR has a multifaceted approach to addressing livelihoods. Key gaps are identified during our feasibility studies, and ranked according to the risk they pose on the implementation of nature-based activities. Through these insights, the project is developed to improve local livelihoods and minimize the challenges to achieving long-term impacts.
Entrepreneurship & Social Empowerment
The empowerment of local communities is essential for the success of nature-based solutions. PUR develops projects that collaborate with communities to align with their needs — prioritizing the autonomy, rights, and well-being of marginalized persons.
