Today marks the launch of the Article 6 Observatory, a new independent platform designed to support transparency, accountability and informed engagement in the operationalisation of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

With cooperative approaches under Article 6.2 advancing and the Article 6.4 Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism nearing implementation, the Article 6 Observatory aims to be a timely, trusted resource for stakeholders navigating these developments.

The observatory’s work includes:

  • Article 6.2: tracking the development of cooperative approaches and associated international trade in mitigation outcomes.
  • Article 6.4: overview of the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism’s rules, modalities and procedures and analysis of forthcoming pipeline of projects.
  • A resource hub: collating key independent resources and peer reviewed research on the domains related to Article 6.

As part of the steering committee, NewClimate Institute’s expert Juliette de Grandpré looks forward to contributing and helping evolve the observatory.
