About the Portfolio.

This Portfolio contains Accounting for Nature® Environmental Accounts for properties and projects participating in WWF's Koala Friendly Carbon Initiative (KFCI).

These Environmental Accounts are designed to track the change in koala habitat condition and koala population activity while restoration activities are conducted under the KFCI program. All restoration activities carried out within the Environmental Accounts are carefully designed and monitored using a scientific and evidence-based approach to ensure integrity and measurable outcomes.  

The monitoring method applied across all accounts within this portfolio is F-04: Koala Population and Habitat Method. This method assesses koala presence and habitat quality within the Environmental Account. In addition to baseline data collection, we aim to collect data in Year 2, Year 5 and Year 10 following restoration. Data collected includes:

  • Koala Population Activity: koala activity, presence and distribution

  • Koala Habitat Condition: context in the landscape, extent and connectivity of habitat, threats, food trees and forest structure 

Together, these metrics underpin the Environmental Account data, which act as a transparent and rigorous approach for evaluating ecological outcomes. This ensures that every restoration effort contributes to resilient koala populations and high-quality habitat. This approach reinforces KFCI’s commitment to integrating biodiversity restoration with carbon farming and long-term conservation impact.

About the Portfolio Manager - WWF Australia.

This portfolio is managed by WWF-Australia and details the environmental accounting associated with the Koala Friendly Carbon Initiative (KFCI), a collaboration between WWF-Australia and Climate Friendly, proudly supported by the NSW Government and HP Inc.

KFCI is a conservation initiative delivering carbon projects using the Environmental Planting Method under the Australian Carbon Credit Scheme, with the goal of restoring over 10,000 hectares of high-value koala habitat while supporting long-term income generation for landholders.

KFCI has also established numerous Environmental Accounts under the Accounting for Nature® Framework to measure and track environmental condition and change over time of the carbon projects. These Environmental Accounts are Registered and Certified under the Accounting for Nature® Framework as AfN Verified. 

Any carbon credits generated are issued independently under the relevant carbon standard and have not been assessed against the Accounting for Nature® Carbon Linking Rules.
