Abstract
This guide to developing domestic carbon
crediting mechanisms is intended to assist national and
subnational policymakers considering whether and how to
establish a carbon crediting mechanism in their
jurisdiction. The guide provides insights into the decision
points for designing a crediting mechanism and how to tailor
the mechanism to achieve domestic policy objectives. This
guide is divided into 10 chapters representing the key
elements that must be considered when setting up a domestic
crediting mechanism. These chapters should be seen as the
building blocks for developing a crediting mechanism, rather
than linear steps in a decision-making process. Policymakers
can decide on issues simultaneously or in a different order
than envisioned to suit the specific circumstances of jurisdiction.
