DESCRIPTION:Introduction: \nThe Article 6.4 Supervisory Body (SBM) is act
 ively working towards the full operationalization of the mechanism. The ad
 option of the first PACM methodology\, A6.4 AMM 001: Flaring or Use of Lan
 dfill Gas\, marks a pivotal moment in these efforts. This methodology was 
 developed through the top down process. Additional methodologies are expec
 ted to be approved next year\, largely through the same top down approach.
 \nIn parallel\, stakeholders have begun submitting PACM methodologies thro
 ugh the bottom up process\, in accordance with the procedure on the develo
 pment\, revision\, and clarification of methodologies and methodological t
 ools.•    Already over 20 methodologies proposals have been received b
 y the UNFCCC secretariat. •    Five proposed PACM methodologies have 
 passed the Initial Assessment stage and are being considered by the Method
 ological Expert Panel (MEP).\nWith a growing number of bottom-up methodolo
 gy submissions\, it becomes increasingly important to support stakeholders
  in preparing robust\, high quality proposals that can move successfully t
 hrough the assessment and approval process. In particular\, targeted guida
 nce and outreach are essential to ensure that submitters are well aware of
  the procedures\, requirements and expectations for bottom-up methodologie
 s submissions.\nObjective of the webinar \nThe webinar is organized with 
 the overarching objective of supporting stakeholders who are keen to submi
 t or re-submit PACM methodologies using the bottom up process. As part of 
 the session\, stakeholders will be introduced to the requirements and proc
 edures for proposing a bottom up methodology submission\, as outlined in t
 he procedure on the development\, revision\, and clarification of methodol
 ogies and methodological tools. The webinar will also highlight the import
 ance of aligning proposed PACM methodologies with the PACM regulatory fram
 ework\, including the baseline\, additionality\, and leakage standards. Im
 portantly\, the webinar will demystify the key elements that stakeholders 
 should follow to ensure high quality methodology submissions. In doing so\
 , it will provide practical guidance on the essential Do’s and Don’ts\
 , along with common mistakes and pitfalls to avoid. In addition\, particip
 ants will have the opportunity to raise clarification questions throughout
  the session\, ensuring they leave with a stronger understanding of the bo
 ttom up methodology development process.\n \n\nHow to register \nIMPORTA
