International Support for Domestic Climate Policies (ISDCP): Phase 1
Climate Strategies, EPRG, University of Cambridge
Following a kick-off workshop in May 2008, this project develops six country case studies and five discussion papers on international support for domestic climate policy. The country studies focus on domestic climate policies in China, India, Brazil, South Africa, Hungary, and Ghana. The institutional papers review the role of policy indicators, policy targets, international incentives schemes - and explore international institutional options and the link between technology transfer and domestic policies.
