Advancing Carbon Markets: From Policy Development to Climate Finance Opportunities – Showcasing the Final Draft Policy Framework

November 16, 2026 · 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm Somali Pavilion

Carbon markets under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement can open new sources of climate finance for Somalia. Rangelands, forests, mangroves, clean cooking and renewable energy could all generate high-quality carbon credits that benefit communities. To unlock this potential, Somalia needs clear rules, strong safeguards and fair benefit-sharing. At this session, the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, with UNICEF, will present the final draft of Somalia’s Carbon Market Policy Framework. It will explain how the framework will guide project approval, protect communities and the environment, and create real opportunities for investors and partners.

Partner: UNICEF
Date: Date: 16 November 2026 · 01:00 – 02:30 (TRT)
