The Women’s Carbon Standard (WCS) is a set of project design and implementation requirements that complement existing compliance or voluntary carbon standards, or other ecosystem services programs. The WCS specifically includes measures to integrate and measure women’s empowerment and participation in carbon projects. The WCS will quantify beneficial outcomes for women, their families and communities. The WCS is a project of WOCAN (Women Organizing for Change in Agriculture and Natural Resource Management).
