About JIN

Foundation Joint Implementation Network (JIN), established in 1995, is an international knowledge center concerning climate change policy issues. The mission of JIN is to serve as a knowledge centre for climate change policy issues in general and the concept of emissions trading in particular.
JIN is a highly specialized carbon market and technology transfer advisory unit, acting independently on a not-for-profit basis. Our core team is comprised of specialists working in advisory roles for carbon market participants since its inception. Our field of expertise has broadened over the years and now includes issues such as climate change and energy policy, technology transfer, sustainable development, and energy market liberalization.
