Policy Brief – The Paris Agreement: The future relevance of UNFCCC-backed carbon markets for Africa

This policy brief is developed based on 5 key messages: 1) A fresh start for international climate policy, 2) Not words only but action, 3) Continued CDM reform, 4) Create post-2020 public CER demand and investment certainty, and 5) The SDM should primarily work as a market mechanism, but also serve as a tool for results-based mitigation finance.
