In August 2013, Japan and Indonesia agreed to promote the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM) to develop large-scale, concrete JCM projects. As part of this, this project studied the potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the main energy consumption fields in Surabaya. Target areas included the four sectors of energy, transportation...
REDD+ projects are invariably complex. There is a need to extract and present the knowledge and lessons that are being generated by them in a systematic and accessible manner. The IGES publication REDD+ Projects: Snapshots of selected REDD+ project designs aims to contribute to meeting this need. This report aims to present a succinct overview of...

Waste recycling activities contribute to critical environmental challenges such as Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and depletion of fossil resources, mainly due to the consumption of fossil energy. However, material recovery from waste recycling can offset both GHG emissions and resource depletion that would otherwise occur through the production of...

Based upon the lessons from the current initiatives under the climate regime as well as relevant literature, this paper discuss specific steps and time frames that aim to add ex-ante clarity to nationally determined contributions to climate change mitigation and enhance their levels of ambition. The process proposed has three distinctive features...
There is a lack of holistic frameworks to help climate change adaptation practitioners identify and implement CCA (climate change adaptation) actions. Keeping this in view, several frameworks for CCA decision making have evolved in recent years. Though these frameworks are still at nascent stages and are yet to be field tested, studies of these...
