First, the new COPA Publication “Get ready with me (GRWM) for Paris Agreement Article 6 in 5 steps” will presented. This guide is especially targeting NOUs in developing countries (Art. 5 countries). It was commissioned by UNDP and at the session, the author will walk through the five steps of the guide, supported by Mathatela, the NOU from Lesotho, who contributed his expertise during its development.

The new free online COPA course for carbon markets and the Paris Agreement Article 6 instrument "Cool Carbon Solutions" will also be showcased. The course is available on the Atingi Platform in English, French and Spanish. Developed by COPA member, Energy Changes, together with Kommunal Kredit Public Consulting, the course combines technical insights on Article 6 participation and voluntary carbon markets with practical tools for implementing refrigerant-related projects. Participants who complete the course will receive a certificate.
