The Aboriginal Carbon Foundation are helping to build the Aboriginal carbon sector. We specialise in carbon projects, advice and services, to help grow this sector across Australia and internationally.
We support carbon farming projects led by Indigenous rangers and connect communities with ACCU buyers, for mutual benefit. We can provide project and policy advice, as well as accredited Carbon Farming Training.
Our services are tailored to meet the needs of all parties in this industry, nationally and internationally. We look forward to working with you.
Aboriginal people involved in and effected by carbon projects in Australia, and other respective countries, must lead the process of development and prioritisation of project outcomes.
This framework is unique, in that it creates the opportunity for Indigenous people to become the experts in the verification of environmental, social and cultural values.

Buying carbon credits from Traditional Owners that provide a genuine benefit to your business as well as Aboriginal people on the ground is a great idea, but we know it can be difficult to achieve. We will help build relationships, negotiate ethical agreements and support you to achieve your corporate social responsibilities.

See a list of projects here.
