It includes information around stakeholder mapping details, social and environmental risk assessments, impact monitoring frameworks, grievance mechanisms, ecosystem characteristics, climate-related vulnerabilities, resource use, waste management, and other environmental safeguards. It also seeks information on the project's alignment with broader sustainable development objectives, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Buyers can use this information to assess how the project identifies and manages potential social and environmental risks, contributes to positive outcomes beyond carbon, and monitors its impacts over time. These questions are particularly relevant for projects that interact directly with local communities, natural ecosystems, or shared resources, including nature-based, agriculture, forestry, blue carbon, and other land-use projects — but have been emphasized across projects by leading buyers. Depending on the project's scale, geography, and risk profile, buyers may choose to supplement this section with additional due diligence related to biodiversity, human rights, environmental and social safeguards, climate resilience, resource use, or community impacts.",
