Using Article 6 to raise climate ambition

Summary

The current climate ambition reflected in Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) is insufficient to meet the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C or 2°C targets. This German report explores how Germany can leverage Article 6.2 of the Paris Agreement to enhance climate ambition through international cooperation, focusing on voluntary uses of internationally transferred mitigation outcomes (ITMOs). It identifies criteria for selecting partner countries and mitigation activities, with two case studies (South Africa and Indonesia) illustrating practical application, informing Germany's future engagement in climate mitigation.
