Background:
The Supervisory Body has been working diligently to establish the necessary requirements and processes for the effective operation of the mechanism, including those related to the application of robust social and environmental safeguards for Article 6.4 activities and/or programmes of activities (PoAs), which impact a diverse range of stakeholders, including local communities and Indigenous Peoples.
As part of these endeavors, the Supervisory Body has integrated requirement for local and global, continuous stakeholder consultations integrated throughout the activity cycle, an appeals and grievance procedure, the SD Tool, and methodology development, among others. These instruments have been developed with input from diverse stakeholders, including local communities and Indigenous Peoples.
It is imperative to keep stakeholders informed about updates on the status of progresses made in the mechanism including through the work of the SBM while taking feedbacks from various stakeholders on the status of the mechanism operation.
With this context, the webinar titled “Article 6.4 Mechanism: Engaging Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities” aims to promote meaningful engagement with Indigenous Peoples and local communities by identifying current or anticipated challenges, as well as opportunities and enabling conditions. The webinar will also highlight key progress in the operationalization of the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM), including recent decisions, rules, and regulations adopted by the SBM, along with future plans and expectations.
