Given the Australian Government's proposal to cease the Climate Active program, ALCA supports retaining and modernising key elements of the framework to preserve the benefits it has provided to Australia's environmental markets.
Key recommendations:
- Retain and update Climate Active’s standards, tools and technical guidance.
- Maintain support for high-integrity carbon projects that deliver biodiversity and First Nations benefits.
- Ensure a transparent and seamless transition that minimises market uncertainty and impacts on First Nations organisations.
- Evolve future guidance to better integrate climate, nature and cultural outcomes.
