The creation of DCEM underscores the importance of aligning national market mechanisms with the broader objectives of the Paris Agreement.
By linking sovereign-led domestic Environmental Markets with buy-side nations under Article 6, this initiative facilitates cross-border cooperation, ensuring effective decarbonisation finance flows towards impactful projects while maintaining environmental integrity and social equity.
DCEM is a pivotal step towards a future where sovereign nations lead in environmental asset generation and trade via a domestic Environmental Market connected to the global community. With climate finance playing a crucial role in the global decarbonisation transition and the regeneration of Natural and Social Capital, DCEM ensures that countries retain sovereignty over their environmental resources while engaging in high-integrity, sustainable Environmental Markets.
