Research output: Book/ReportOther report

Abstract

Since the adoption of the Paris Agreement, financial institutions and other economic actors have taken commitments to ‘align’ their activities with the goals agreed to by national governments in 2015. A growing body of literature from both the research community and practitioners has emerged on ‘alignment’ with the Paris Agreement goals – but to date no overarching framework has been proposed to define what it means and implies in practice. This Discussion Paper written by I4CE aims to fill this gap and propose a framework that can be used by all institutions, governments and companies to develop their alignment strategies.
