Founded in 2007, the International Carbon Action Partnership (ICAP) is an international forum for governments and public authorities that have implemented or are planning to implement emissions trading systems (ETS). ICAP facilitates cooperation between countries, sub-national jurisdictions, and supranational institutions that have established or are actively pursuing carbon markets through mandatory cap and trade systems.
ICAP provides a forum to share and discuss knowledge and practical experiences with emissions trading and the design of ETS. Since its formation, ICAP has established itself as an ETS knowledge hub and its membership has grown to 33 members and 7 observers.
ICAP’s work focuses on three pillars: ETS knowledge sharing, technical dialogue and capacity building activities. This includes the publication of reports and knowledge products on key ETS topics, the organization of workshops and webinars as well as courses on emissions trading for developing countries and emerging economies.
