Voluntary carbon markets and the poor

Research aiming to identify ways in which the voluntary carbon markets might be made more beneficial for the poor. Specific research themes include:

  • Identifying the opportunities and constraints that the market presents to the poor, by comparison with markets under the Kyoto Protocol mechanisms;
  • Determining appropriate institutional arrangements for carbon offset projects and
  • A comparative study of emerging greenhouse gas standards and their implications for the poor.
