Developing strategies for the post-2012 climate change negotiations


In December 2009 Copenhagen was the stage for final negotiations about a new global agreement to prevent climate change and to cope with the consequences of climate change. Many details of the post-2012 successor to the Kyoto Protocol still need to be worked out.


This project provided national governments with insight into a range of issues, including:

  • The debate about global emission reduction targets
  • Defining the national shares in a global effort
  • Designing financing measures in countries that use different economic standards
  • Preventing deforestation or other disadvantageous changes in land use

This knowledge enables governments to develop their strategy at the international climate change negotiation table.
   

Client

Governments of Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, South Korea, the UK, Canada and the European Commission

The wide range of details and interests is making the international climate change negotiations very complex. At Ecofys, we have provided strategic advice, translating scientific information into policy options, making details clearer and more transparent and creating more insight into the negotiation process.

We have sufficient expertise to combine models, data and profound knowledge of abatement and adaptation measures, how to finance these measures and we are aware of the broad spectrum of political views. Thanks to this expertise, we can provide clear solutions to many complex issues, such as financing mechanisms.
