Hosted by VCMI in partnership with the Climate Vulnerable Forum–V20 (CVF-V20) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), this event will showcase VCMI’s updated Carbon Markets Access Toolkit, developed in partnership with UNDP and Climate Focus.

As countries build out financing and investment strategies to achieve their nationally determined contributions (NDCs) ahead of COP30, VCMI’s Carbon Markets Access Toolkit provides policymakers in emerging markets with a vital playbook to unlock finance from carbon markets in support of their climate and sustainable development goals.

The launch event will present the updated content from the Toolkit, showcasing the urgent need for scaled-up, holistic capacity building. It will also feature high-level speakers from governments sharing their experience addressing key themes identified by the Toolkit, as well as insights from key collaborating partners and remarks from senior representatives across government and civil society.

Carbon markets are critical for climate action. Businesses recognize this, but participation in carbon markets has stalled at a time when increased flows of climate finance are urgently needed.

New research highlights business perspectives on what’s needed to create a confident carbon market. In this webinar, we will share key findings from the report A Confident Carbon Market: Business perspectives, based on research from Accenture and VCMI.

Informed by cross-sectoral, global business perspectives captured thanks to World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) networks, the research draws on insights captured from 65 companies, 20 expert interviews, and more than 60 reports to illuminate corporate perspectives on what’s holding companies back from engaging in the market—and what needs to happen next.
