Analyses of German and European Climate Law Structure

Project
Duration
-

As part of the implementation of its NDC, the Chinese government is focusing on further developing its climate legislation. According to recent developments, China plans to develop an environmental code with a chapter on climate. Through the climate legislation workstream of the project "Sino-German Cooperation on Climate Change – Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)", the Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) supports the Chinese side by strengthening exchange between experts and stakeholders from the two countries and providing information on German and EU experience in this field.

In this context, Ecologic Institute is conducting two studies on German and European climate legislation, one of them focusing on the structure of climate-related laws and their relationship to environmental laws.

The study reports will be presented in workshops.
