How we work
We pilot circular models such as composting, biochar and by-product valorisation, with clear environmental accounting.
Design
Interventions and intended outcomes
Interventions
- Organic waste valorisation
- Biochar and compost production
- By-product reuse in value chains
- Green procurement linkages
Intended outcomes
- Reduced waste and emissions
- New green income streams
Evidence & metrics
Indicator framework
- Tonnes of waste diverted
- Estimated emissions avoided (verified method)
Targets and baselines are set per project and published only once verified.
