Details

Implementation of Article 6 market-based mechanisms of the Paris Agreement is a climate action priority for many Middle Eastern and North African countries. Article 6 implementation allows the transfer of emission reductions between countries while also incentivizing the private sector to invest in climate-friendly solutions for NDC implementation, potentially halving the cost of implementing the NDCs. The NDC Partnership aims to bring together countries at different stages of Article 6 readiness to share insights from their current and planned activities regarding Article 6 implementation, including lessons learned from recent capacity building efforts and regional south-south exchanges on Article 6 implementation. This event will provide a timely opportunity for countries to share their knowledge with an aim of accelerating Article 6 implementation across the region.
