Consultation 12 October 2021 - Article 6

Many thanks for taking the time to feed into this consultation for Managing Credits Authorized for Use Under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

We are seeking feedback on the following questions up until 19 November 2021:

Gold Standard will consider carefully any feedback to this consultation, as well as any outcome from Article 6 negotiations at COP26, before incorporating these revised documents into the standard. As this is a new process and the required infrastructure and norms are only beginning to emerge, we expect the process and requirements to evolve over time and we will continuously look for ways to make improvements, introduce efficiencies and align with common (and best) practice across the market.
