As climate commitments intensify, trade policy is increasingly shaped by carbon constraints, green industrial strategies, border adjustment mechanisms, and sustainability-linked market rules. This course family equips learners with the analytical, regulatory, and quantitative skills necessary to understand climate–trade interactions, evaluate policy impacts, and support strategic decision-making for governments, businesses, and international development institutions. Participants will explore carbon pricing, CBAM, green subsidies, supply-chain decarbonization, and the implications for Global South economies.
