Cross-cutting priorities — GESI, safeguards & FPIC, data/MRV, state partnership and youth — run through every pillar.

Research & policy Project preparation Implementation & TA Training & certification

Pillar 01

Climate Change & Carbon Credit

Nigeria’s forests, mangroves and cookstove/renewables potential are valuable — communities need honest, community-side technical support.

Community Carbon Readiness Service (free advisory, benefit-sharing review, FPIC)
Carbon project development support (REDD+, mangrove/blue carbon, cookstoves, renewables)
Regulatory navigation with NCCC and Article 6 pathways
MRV and digital infrastructure
Benefit sharing and annual public Carbon Integrity Review

Integrity: No commission or equity on advised projects. We decline work without genuine FPIC.

G17partnership delivery

Working with and alongside national and international green-growth partners

Agencies such as NCCC, REA and NESREA work upstream with government. GreenTech positions itself downstream — as implementing partner, pipeline feeder, workforce supplier and local knowledge partner. Cooperation is an intended pathway, not an asserted existing partnership.
