Canada´s Clean Development Mechanism and Joint Implementation (CDM & JI) Office was created to enhance Canada´s capacity to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the CDM and JI.

CDM and JI provide opportunities for Canadian entities to pursue international projects that reduce GHG emissions, while contributing to international efforts to address climate change. In addition, the two mechanisms provide several benefits for the host countries
