About This Event

Clean and improved cookstove crediting projects are among the oldest, highest-volume, and most scrutinized crediting types in the voluntary carbon market. Key questions remain: How accurately can impacts be measured? Will recent methodological updates address market concerns about quality? And how much of today’s critique reflects current evidence versus outdated assumptions?

To clarify these questions, RMI recently published a technical explainer examining risks to quality and emerging best practices for identifying high-integrity cookstove projects.

This webinar built on that analysis and convenes experts for a candid conversation about what people often get wrong about cookstove credits–and what robust program design looks like in practice today.
