NEW RELEASES

VOLUNTARY ECOLOGICAL MARKETS (VEM)

VEM Overview - Version 2 (2022)

Version 2 of the VEM Overview continues on the work from version 1 by incorporating industry feedback received following the release of version 1. This new version also dives deeper into topics that were not as fleshed out in version 1 and provides an implementation example showing how the tokenizations can be used in real-world systems.

This overview is intended as an introduction and basis for further dialogue and cooperation with all relevant stakeholders in the ecosystem. The goal is to cultivate further cooperative efforts on the keystone elements and best practices for tokenization of ecological assets, with the intention to align around a common governance set of standards, specifications, and classification systems.

VEM Overview - Version 1 (2021)

Version 1 of the VEM Overview establishes a model set of standards for tokenization, contractual extensions, workflows, and analytics for voluntary ecological markets.

These standards are based on the IWA’s Token Taxonomy Framework, and intend to serve as foundations for using distributed ledger technologies (DLT) to create an auditable and scalable ecosystem for voluntary ecological markets.
