Supporting the 11 ASEAN Member States in building technical, institutional, and policy readiness to participate in international carbon markets under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
Project overview:
We are providing expert advisory services to one of the most significant ASEAN–EU climate cooperation initiatives to date. The project supports ASEAN Member States in navigating the evolving carbon market landscape from strengthening domestic MRV systems and governance frameworks to building readiness for international carbon market participation under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.
Our work spans a comprehensive Art.6 readiness assessment of all 11 ASEAN Member States, followed by high-level knowledge exchange and capacity-building activities designed to bridge the gap between ASEAN’s carbon pricing ambitions and practical implementation.
Our scope of work:
Assessment
- Article 6 Readiness – 11 ASEAN member states (AMS)
- Regional analysis of legal frameworks, governance, MRV infrastructure, and abatement potential across ASEAN
Workshop
- Regional Carbon Pricing Workshop
- Facilitating ASEAN–EU policy dialogue on ETS design, carbon pricing instruments, and Article 6 readiness – Brunei Darussalam, May 2026
Study Exchange
- EU ETS Study Visit to Europe
- Hands-on exposure to EU carbon market governance, registry systems, and market operations for 35 ASEAN delegates
Our contribution:
Our team brings deep expertise in Article 6 mechanisms, carbon pricing instruments, and MRV frameworks to deliver a rigorous, evidence-based assessment that will directly inform regional policy and capacity-building priorities across Southeast Asia. We are conducting in-person consultations with key government ministries and technical agencies across the ASEAN member states, and will produce policy recommendations and a regional roadmap endorsed by ASEAN’s Working Group on Climate Change.
This project reflects our commitment to supporting credible, high-integrity carbon market development in emerging economies and our proven ability to deliver complex, multi-country technical advisory assignments at the regional level.
