Guide 5: Screening and Developing Article 6 Activities

Cover Photo

Article 6 of the Paris Agreement provides an opportunity for activity participants to access an additional source of revenue – carbon finance – resulting from international transactions of mitigation outcomes.

The guide helps activity participants understand the Article 6 activity cycle, whether they are using a bilateral or independent crediting mechanism to generate mitigation outcomes for transfer, or they are using the Article 6.4 mechanism to generate the mitigation outcomes for transfers.

It also presents tools for scoping, designing and structuring mitigation activities under the Article 6 and shows how activity participants can meet requirements for authorizing mitigation activities and mitigation outcomes.
