International Climate Policy and Carbon Markets is a bi-monthly report aiming to provide a
clear analysis of the worldwide evolution of the carbon market, and of the international and
domestic climate policies. 

The report is drafted in four sections focusing on

• International negotiations and national
  policies, 
• European and international energy policy,
• Flexible mechanisms and developing
  countries, and finally, 
• The valuation of the carbon price in the European and global market. 

The information and data
presented in each section are not
only an update of recent events
but also an extrapolation of the
quantitative implications of
recent events, based on a detailed
analysis of academic papers and
recently published reports (i.e.
how will the carbon price be
impacted by changes in the
demand or supply side, etc).

 Every two months, for each
section, the report will briefly introduce
and analyse the most important
policies (proposed or applied) and
actions. Each article will include
boxes, figures and graphs in order
to provide in-depth examinations
and data exemplifications; all
papers and reports used for the
analysis will be cited in the final
reference section.
