Aga Khan Rural Support Program: First community-based Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) project – Carbon Expo in Germany


Least developed countries & community access to CDM/climate finance/adaptation funds: Pakistan case study

This side event session is co-sponsored by the Aga Khan Rural Support Program (AKRSP) & World Bank

This session will highlight the community engagement aspect in climate finance and CDM. Not only will it highlight the potential of community contribution/benefits to climate change efforts by projects like the AKRSP community micro-hydroelectric project, but it will also detail actual issues encountered. Issues and hurdles that communities and LDCs have run into in accessing the CDM as a result of UNFCCC rules and procedures will be discussed. Pakistan will be used as a case study of typical LDC and community access issues. As one of the hardest hit countries by climate change that is home to the Himalayan glaciers that are melting, its situation is an important one to consider.
