Public consultation of documents

Public consultations are a planning mechanism that allows the effective participation of the different actors involved in the carbon market for the formulation, development, and implementation of CCMPs.

Cercarbono has this space for documents, tools, and methodologies to be made available to the public for a minimum period of 30 solar days, which can be developed by Cercarbono or by interested stakeholders. The documents that stakeholders submit for public consultation must be supported by the ISO 14064-2:2019 Standard.
