The Partnership for Agricultural Carbon held a successful side event during New York Climate Week, aimed at accelerating access to private finance for Latin America and the Caribbean’s agricultural sector through high-integrity carbon markets. This event increases visibility for the region's leading efforts to build the capacities necessary to respond to the call made by LAC Ministers of Agriculture during the last Inter-American Board Meeting. The ministers emphasized the urgent need to create an enabling policy environment that facilitates access to private investment in support of sustainable agricultural practices.

The MSU Department of Forestry is a founding member of PAC. The Forest Carbon and Climate Program serves as PAC interim Executive Secretariat and was instrumental in organizing the event during NYCW. This is a clear signal of MSU leadership in accelerating natural climate solutions at the global level.
