December 17, 2025

The FAST Partnership webinar explored how high-integrity carbon markets can mobilize climate finance for agrifood systems, aligning with national climate goals and social safeguards. Participants gained practical insights into voluntary and compliance markets, Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, and opportunities/risks for agrifood actors, including farmers, agribusinesses, and financial institutions.

The session emphasized policy conditions crucial for catalyzing private sector demand, such as robust governance, clear authorization, and strong MRV systems. By sharing real-world examples and policy insights, the webinar aims to help stakeholders responsibly scale carbon market participation and unlock sustainable investment.
