Climate Change and Clean Development Mechanism

Climate change poses great challenges to our ability to reduce poverty. The poor are dependent on vulnerable land and water resources. Changes in climatic patterns undermine the poor’s ability to subsist and improve their asset base.

ICEED is part of an international network of consultants, research centers and NGOs working on the linkage between poverty and climate change. We explore opportunities for attracting investments in small-scale private sector driven and community based energy service enterprises through the Clean Development Mechanism.
