NGO "ANOTHER WAY" (STICHTING BAKENS VERZET), NETHERLANDS, SUSTAINABLE INTEGRATED SELF-FINANCING DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS AND ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT TECHNOLOGIES

This section is the core part of the analysis of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) system in relation to the financing of integrated development projects.

It has 13 parts:

09-01. CO2 savings through the reduced use of non-renewable biomass for cooking purposes through the introduction of improved stoves.

09-02. Demonstration project for the recovery of forest lands and natural parks and reserves using traditional species.

09-03. Afforestation activities in settlements as defined for the distributed planting of fruit and nut trees and similar.

09-04. Small-scale agro-forestry activities – such as distributed bamboo plantations on grasslands and croplands.

09-05. Small-scale agro-forestry activities – distributed demonstration plantations for practical purposes for local use, including but not limited to Moringa plantations on marginal lands.

09-06. Demonstration afforestation and/or reforestation (AR) projects on wetlands using traditional species.

09-07. Demonstration afforestation and/or reforestation projects on lands having low inherent potential to support living biomass.

09-08. Use of renewable biomass instead of non-renewable biomass with improved cook stoves.

09-09. Recycling of human waste to avoid the use of industrial fertilisers.

09-10. Methane recovery from animal waste for cooking and lighting purposes especially in pastoralist areas.

09-11. Replacement of kerosene lamps, incandescent light bulbs, and of the use of throw-away batteries by renewable energy sources (wind, solar and/or renewable bio-mass including but not limited to plant oil, gasification of biomass).

09-12. Replacement of non-renewable electrical, diesel- and battery-driven sources for mechanical equipment such as pumps and mills and, where applicable, pubic lighting systems.

09-13. Local recycling and recovery of materials from solid wastes, including but not limited to plastics.

Each of the 13 parts forms a sub-Programme of Activities within a given integrated development project area with about 50.000 inhabitants. Any combination of sub-Programmes of Activities can be applied within each project area. For each sub-Programme of Activities used, there will be either a single application at project level (50.000 people) or up to 45 applications at intermediate level (1500-2000 people) or up to 250 applications at local development unit level (about 250 people) or up to 10.000 applications (at household level).

All indications are approximate and indicative and subject to change according to detailed calculations to be made for each of the methodologies applied.

Summaries and conclusions can be consulted in section 10. Graphs and conclusions. An executive summary is available in section 01. Executive summary.
