Accompanied by our local partner iRise Carbon, the session focused on how CanopyScope, specifically designed to monitor and verify Nature-Based Solutions (NbS), can provide high-resolution insights into forest dynamics and carbon storage. DAI Labs demonstrated the platform’s ability to leverage advanced geospatial analytics and satellite data processing with scientific rigor, offering a scalable solution to strengthen Malawi’s environmental governance and carbon market integrity.
Empowering National Sovereignty through Transparency
To support Malawi’s climate action for sustainable development and prevention of deforestation, as well as increased emphasis in the country’s participation in carbon credit trading, DAI Labs has formally proposed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). Under this proposed partnership, DAI Labs will provide the government with free access to CanopyScope for monitoring carbon credit projects in the country.
A Partnership Built on Respect
During the meeting, Honorable Minister Patricia Wiskes emphasized that any partnership must respect national ownership, stating, “Malawi will lead. And our partners will support us in the direction set by the Malawian people and Malawian institutions.”
Bryan Atwood, CEO and Co-Founder of DAI Labs, shared his commitment following the demonstration:
“We are ready to work alongside the Government of Malawi. By providing AI-powered satellite data software, we aim to ensure that forest tracking is backed by scientific rigor and local insights. Our goal is to support the direction set by the Malawian people, ensuring that technology serves as a foundation for stewardship and responsibility toward their natural heritage.”
Looking Ahead
DAI Labs is eager to continue our collaboration with Malawian institutions. We look forward to finalizing the MoU and beginning this important work to protect Malawi’s forests and enhance the integrity of its carbon markets through robust Nature-Based Solutions.
Seeking Investors and Partners
We are currently seeking partners from both the private sector and government who require robust MRV solutions to meet the growing demand for high-quality carbon credits.
