Despite their critical role, there remains a limited understanding of the intricacies within compliance and voluntary carbon markets. Notably, the past year witnessed a surge in critiques and challenges from both media outlets and scientists, with particular emphasis on forest carbon offsets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event includes a <strong>key note from Sergio Ermotti, Group CEO and President of the Executive Board of UBS AG. <\/strong>It further contains an introduction to carbon markets by <strong>Prof. Dr. Eric Nowak<\/strong> and presentations from industry experts inlcuding<strong> Southpole <\/strong>and<strong> Gold Standard<\/strong>. It closes with a panel discussion examining voluntary carbon markets and the role of carbon markets in the transition. The exchange between industry experts, academics and stakeholders aims to foster a frank dialogue on the present state and the future trajectory of carbon markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Please find the detailed agenda at this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainablefinance.ch\/upload\/rm\/20\/24\/2024-03-21-programme-carbon-markets-final-1-1.pdf?_=1705911094123\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a> (PDF).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swiss Sustainable Finance in cooperation with Universit\u00e0 della Svizzera italiana (USI) and the Lugano Commodity Trading Association.
