Companies and stakeholders using the High Carbon Stock Approach Toolkit are required to undergo assessments that measure, report and monitor how their No Deforestation commitments are being achieved on the ground.
Assessments are conducted using satellite mapping and AI technology, and on-the-ground field plot data collection and information gathering carried out by accredited environmental and human rights tim penilai.

Penilaian yang dilakukan berdasarkan Toolkit SKT
The HCSA is not just a methodology for conserving areas of High Carbon Stock forest. It is a multi-layered approach to prevent plantation and forestry development from taking place in carbon-rich peatlands and landscapes with high biodiversity values – or in community lands with high social, economic and cultural values.
HCSA assessment is also critically important to identify areas of scrub and degraded land with low levels of carbon and low biodiversity values.
These lands offer potential for development to take place and create sustainable growth and livelihoods – if the rights of local communities to give or withhold their consent to development has been upheld.
Semua data penilaian dicatat sebagai bukti dalam laporan penilaian dipublikasikan di situs web kami.
Forests and conservation areas must be monitored if ‘No Deforestation’ commitments of companies are to be credible and transparent. In addition to HCSA member companies’ internal monitoring, HCSA monitors High Carbon Stock forest areas for deforestation and fires through the HCSA Platform Peringatan dan Pemantauan, built on Global Forest Watch Pro.
The HCSA Toolkit is an open-access resource and freely available to any company or stakeholder to use in order to identify risks and eliminate deforestation from their operations – and take urgently needed action to conserve tropical forest landscapes. Assessments must be peer-reviewed to be considered valid – please see how to conduct HCSA assessments untuk informasi lebih lanjut.
