 Information
Dissemination/Awareness Raising |
|
 |
| GEC / IGES / JBIC / JICA / NEDO / OECC |
|
|
| On the outset of the capacity building activities, JKAP supports in information dissemination and awareness raising of the basic knowledge of the Kyoto Mechanisms. To date, major movements of developing international as well as domestic institutions of CDM/JI, have been advanced by "learning-by-doing" approach. In this regard, it is extremely important that CDM/JI stakeholders be continuously well informed of those developments. Under JKAP, there are several programmes to assist you in obtaining such information, provided as below. |

|
| |
| Acquiring Techniques of PDD Formulation and Developing Baseline Methodologies |
|
|
| GEC / IGES / JBIC / NEDO / JICA |
|
|
| Projects under the Kyoto Mechanisms must comply with decisions by the Conference of Parties (UNFCCC), and other key organizations such as the CDM Executive Board. Especially, in acquiring techniques of project design documents and developing baseline methodologies, stakeholders need intensive as well as extensive knowledge on the complexity of the rules. JKAP's programmes provide assistance to upgrade the strength of stakeholders capacity in this regard. |

| Human and Institutional Capacity Building of Host Countries |
|
|
| IGES / JBIC / JICA / NEDO |
|
|
| Host countries play key roles in CDM/JI project activities. Since finding and supporting reliable partners in host countries would contribute Japan's CDM/JI project activities, as well sustainable development of our partners, JKAP promotes human and institutional capacity development through various programmes. |
|
| |
|
| |
| Capacity Building of Financial Sector |
|
|
| IGES / JBIC / NEDO / JCF |
|
|
| Meeting financial needs is a fundamental condition to implement CDM/JI project activities. Nevertheless, since the institution of the Kyoto Mechanisms is relatively new, knowledge and information are yet to be well diffused to key stakeholders, including financial sector people. Recognizing the important roles to be played by financial sector, JKAP provides assistance to them in acquiring knowledge so that they may be involved properly in CDM/JI projects. |

CDM Programme
Ministry of the Environment Japan (MOEJ) has launched a capacity building
programme for the Clean Development Mechanism and the Joint Implementation
in developing countries or economies in transition, and appointed the Institute
for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) as an implementing organization.
The CDM programme has conducted activities for increasing capacities related
to human, institutional and operational aspect of CDM in particularly those
6 countries; namely, Cambodia, China, India , Indonesia , the Philippines
and Thailand . The programme has been publishing textbooks for CDM (CDM
in CHARTS), database of the registered CDM projects (IGES CDM Project Database),
and the CDM Country Guide which provides country-specific information for
CDM project planning and preparation (http://www.iges.or.jp/en/cdm/report.html). In FY2007, the CDM programme continues its activities for government
officials and private sectors and prepares publications with updated information
for assisting the realization of CDM in the host countries of Asia.

Assistance by Japan International Cooperation Agency(JICA) focuses on capacity
development, which includes institution-building, organization strengthening
and human resource development. This is designed to assist people in the
developing countries to become self-reliant, solving their countries' problems
through their own efforts. The field of cooperation covers widely, such
as environmental management, mining industries, energy conservation, infrastructure,
agriculture, and so forth. Regarding CDM/JI, JICA implements its cooperation
mainly in two fields as follows:
- capacity development of Designated National Authorities (DNA)
- capacity development of sector ministries for each field of CDM/JI projects (such as renewable energy, energy conservation, afforestation and reforestation, etc.)

JBIC has been actively involved in the project formation, has organized
a series of seminars in Eastern Europe, Asia, Latin America and a seminar
with Prototype Carbon Fund of World Bank on Kyoto Mechanism, and has concluded
cooperation agreements with the host countries etc.. These cooperation
agreements were signed with the International Emissions Trading Association
(IETA), World Bank, two regional development banks, governments and financial
institutions of host countries. Through these activities, JBIC has made
contribution to the improvement of institutional framework and capacity
of host countries to implement CDM and JI projects.
Furthermore, since 2005 JBIC has held seminars on the attractiveness and
potentiality of carbon credit business to mainly Japanese companies in
major cities of Europe, America and Asia such as London, Frankfurt, Sao
Paulo, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Osaka. JBIC will continue to support carbon
business by Japanese companies through disseminating activity and proposing
the new carbon business model.

The Kyoto Mechanisms Information Platform is a major information
vehicle of the JKAP Framework. By providing basic information,
the Platform assists stakeholders to reduce the risk and cost,
and realize smooth business activities in this field.  Since
the Overseas Environmental Cooperation Center, Japan (OECC)
has strength in its wide network among officials and businesses
of developing countries, based on its 10 years history of
international environmental cooperation. OECC also serves
as the Secretariat of the Asia-Pacific Seminar on Climate
Change, where major Climate Change players in the region freely
exchange views, experiences and lessen learnt. Help Desk Service
for the Kyoto Mechanisms is also available.
