The UNFCCC supports Parties and stakeholders in engaging with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, helping them leverage market and non-market mechanisms to reduce greenhouse gas emissions effectively. 

To maximize the benefits of Article 6, capacity-building initiatives provide practical guidance, training, and peer-learning opportunities. Through the UNFCCC Regional Collaboration Centers (RCCs) and global partnerships, these programs aim to build a shared understanding of how to engage with Article 6 in a high-integrity way—ensuring cooperative approaches drive sustainable development and ambitious climate action. 

Available resources include: 

• Multi-media tools – Videos, webinars and interactive content 

• Tailored training – Workshops

• Knowledge products – Guides, case studies, and best practices:

  • Article 6.2: Reference manual for the accounting, reporting and review of cooperative approaches

  • Article 6.4: Manual for host Parties' participation in the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM)

  • Article 6.8: Frequently Asked Questions on non-market approaches

• Peer-learning opportunities – Collaborative forums and expert exchange
