Participants emphasized the need for clear pricing structures and strong oversight to ensure that market signals translate into credible emissions reductions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Musadik Malik<\/strong> said, &#8220;Carbon markets are not just about trading credits, they&#39;re about valuing climate action fairly and ensuring that every ton reduced translates into real benefits for our people and our economy.&#8221; The comment underlined a commitment to designing a carbon market that delivers tangible social and economic outcomes across Pakistan.<\/p>\n<p>Under the Supporting Preparedness for Article 6 Cooperation (SPAR6C) programme, funded by the German federal government, the collaboration will support Pakistan in mobilizing climate finance, fostering innovation and aligning market mechanisms with global Article 6 guidance. Representatives from GGGI and UNEP-CCC discussed technical support and capacity building to implement pricing and registry infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>Officials said development of robust governance and transparent pricing will help unlock investment for low-carbon projects and support Pakistan&#8217;s nationally determined contributions.
