Go Balance in Brazil:
Why the Go Balance Trocano REDD+ Project Truly Matters
The Go Balance Trocano Project is a REDD+ initiative that protects a large area of tropical rainforest in Borba, Amazonas — not just through words, but through sustained, on-the-ground, verifiable actions.
At its core, the project is about enabling forest protection that works because it works for the people who live there.
As a committed REDD+ project developer in Brazil, Go Balance collaborates directly with the Municipality of Borba to co-deliver practical, locally grounded solutions that reduce deforestation, support biodiversity, and enhance community wellbeing.
This is REDD+ with roots — built on trust, data, and the reality of the Amazon.
The Trocano Project REDD+ model delivers measurable carbon reductions and verified co-benefits, all while placing local communities at the heart of its design and delivery. It’s not only effective — it’s inclusive, credible, and built to last.
What the Go Balance Trocano Project means for Borba
The Trocano Project isn’t just about offsetting carbon. It’s about building lasting benefits where they’re needed most. Across the Borba region, the project is helping communities access tools and resources that support wellbeing and climate resilience.
Training 25 local volunteer firefighters in remote forest areas to prevent and respond to wildfires.
Running composting and agroforestry workshops to promote food security and sustainable land use
Organising health and wellbeing events for women, with a focus on access and inclusion
A REDD+ Project that Works
Trocano REDD Project - Built to Bring Benefits
The Go Balance Trocano Project offers something unique: a REDD+ initiative that combines technical integrity with genuine community engagement.
Located in Borba, Amazonas, and backed by more than a decade of collaboration with local government, this project is designed to deliver long-term forest protection, real emissions reductions, and measurable social benefit. It does so by integrating advanced deforestation risk analysis, verified monitoring, and — most importantly — the leadership of the people who live in the forest and protect it every day.
This isn’t just a carbon project. It’s a living partnership between science, governance, and community — and it’s making a real difference in one of the most important ecosystems on the planet.
The Go Balance Trocano Project is proof that REDD+ can be done right. And they're committed to showing what that looks like — on the ground, in the data, and through every Natural Capital Credit they achieve.
