Policy-proofing the PACM: implementing COP29 decisions on Article 6

• Florence School of Transnational Governance
• STG Climate

Session as part of the EUI Climate Week 2025.

COP 29 adopted new methodological standards and rules on registries, making the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism under Article 6.4 of the Paris Agreement almost ready to start its operations after years of delays.

As expedited implementation of the Baku results is envisaged to help the first activities under PACM take off relatively soon, this session will explore how countries, organizations and project developers are equipping themselves towards cooperation under the new mechanism, also by investigating the sentiment of key stakeholders on the actual potential of the newly established system and its interlinkages with those operating in the Voluntary Carbon Markets.
