Abstract
While it is extremely important to further enhance international cooperation through Article 6 of the Paris Agreement towards Net-Zero, it is essential that each country that may be a part of international cooperation framework works for Capacity Building (CB), promotes cooperation including investment by the private sector, and ensures the integrity of the carbon market that guarantees this international cooperation framework.
In this seminar, representatives from participating countries and institutions that joined in the Paris Agreement Article 6 Implementation Partnership (A6IP), launched by Japan, will confirm the need to further develop capacity building as well as to further strengthen cooperation with the private sector and various initiatives towards high integrity carbon markets.Program
