ISWA Germany is launching the Carbon Market Series, a new webinar format exploring the role of carbon markets in supporting climate action and project finance in the waste management and circular economy sector.
As countries and industries work towards their climate targets, waste management projects are increasingly recognised for their potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, access to finance remains one of the main barriers to project implementation. Carbon markets may offer new opportunities to unlock investment and support the deployment of climate-friendly waste management and circular economy solutions worldwide.
What to Expect
- Insights into carbon markets and their relevance for the waste and circular economy sector
- Practical perspectives on climate finance and project development
- Expert contributions from leading practitioners and market experts
- Discussion of current policy developments and international frameworks
- Opportunities to engage with professionals from the waste, recycling, and climate sectors
Webinar #1: Unlocking the Potential of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement
📅 Date: 14 October 2026
🕒 Time: 14:00-17:00 CEST
📍 Location: Online
The first webinar introduces Article 6 of the Paris Agreement and examines its potential relevance for the waste management and circular economy sector.
Article 6 provides a framework for international cooperation on climate action through three mechanisms: Articles 6.2, 6.4 and 6.8. The session explores what these mechanisms mean in practice for international waste management projects and discusses both the opportunities and challenges associated with their application. Participants will also gain insights into the potential role of Article 6 credits for the EU and its Member States in the future.
Webinar #2: Deep Dive & Practical Insights: How to support waste projects globally through Art. 6 of the Paris Agreement
📅 Date: 27 October 2026
🕒 Time: 14:00-17:00 CEST
📍 Location: Online
Building on the introductory session, the second webinar focuses on the practical application of Article 6 mechanisms in the waste and circular economy sector.
The webinar will examine how waste management projects can engage with Article 6 mechanisms in practice, including key considerations for project developers, implementation challenges, and opportunities for mobilising climate finance. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how carbon markets can potentially support the development and financing of international waste management and circular economy projects.
