The 2025 Global Knowledge Forum will facilitate insightful exchange, address challenges, and showcase progress in deploying carbon pricing instruments and carbon market mechanisms that help meet global climate and development goals. This year's forum gathers implementing and donor countries, policymakers, knowledge partners, and experts for dialogue and collaboration. Through interactive and participatory sessions, participants will engage in meaningful discussions on emerging opportunities, best practices, and lessons learned in addressing barriers to effective implementation.
Through the World Bank’s Partnership for Market Implementation (PMI) initiative, countries are making progress towards developing carbon pricing and market-based approaches for impactful development outcomes. Enhanced collaboration, exchange and knowledge-sharing can enable the effective design and implementation of these instruments, supporting both climate and development goals, particularly in emerging economies.
Part of the forum will be convened with the Transformative Carbon Asset Facility (TCAF) and Carbon Initiative for Development (Ci-Dev), offering broader perspectives into country action in carbon markets—from building robust national frameworks and generating high-quality carbon assets through strategic sector programs, to advancing market infrastructure and unlocking monetization opportunities to unlock shared global prosperity.
