Non-permanence Risk Analysis
Definition
The process by which a project risk assessment is conducted, and subsequently validated independently by a VCS accredited entity. Based on this assessment, the validator/verifier assigns a project risk rating and determines the percentage of the project's carbon credits to be transferred into the AFOLU Pooled Buffer Account.
