Commissioned by Swedish Energy Agency, the  Perspectives/Climate Focus Article 6 readiness database consolidates the main attributes of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) by Parties with relevance to International Cooperation under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. The database summarizes the key features and elements identified in the NDCs  submitted until 31 July 2021 that signal Article 6 readiness. The Parties included in the database are limited to countries who have indicated in the NDCs a willingness  to take part in international cooperation or make use of market-based mechanisms to meet the targets set in their NDCs.
