Navigating Trade-Related Climate Measures: First draft of the policy report
September 24 @ 15:00 - 17:00
This is an online event.
By invitation only, if you want to join please send an email to: ssvensson@ercst.org
Governments are increasingly contemplating measures such as carbon border adjustments. Such policies can have diverse impact on different countries depending on a country’s specific circumstances and the nature of their exports.
The purpose of the Climate-Trade Nexus Assessment (CTNA) project is to explore how trade-based climate measures that aim to address international greenhouse gas (GHG) leakage resulting from domestic climate policy measures in key industries might be designed to account for the legitimate differences that characterise climate policy across various developing country trading partners.
For this event, we invite stakeholders from different countries to join us in a virtual workshop for the Climate-Trade Nexus project. ERCST has held workshops on the methodologies and their impacts together with our partners in Brazil, India, Mexico, Turkey & South Africa. At this meeting we will present the initial findings from the first draft of the policy report which will investigate the different methodologies and previous findings on the topic. We will also present an analytical framework on how to evaluate the different methodologies against domestic climate policies.
