Strategies for eu leadership in environmental negotiations

Objective

The overall goal of this project is to provide decision support tools in order to define potentials for EU strategies within climate change negotiation. Analysis of those strategies is primordial since the EU position will frame the design of, and the level of participation to, the international agreement. Decision support tools provided will be twofold. First, a simulation model will be built in order to highlight the strategic interest of the EU regarding climate change. Likely scenarios for Kyoto and beyond Kyoto regarding participation and Protocol design will be addressed and best response-strategy of the EU to those scenarios will be analyzed. Second, potentials for the EU to adopt binding strategies on other countries ' behavior will be studied. Strategies and positions of the EU regarding clean development mechanisms and trade sanctions against defecting countries will be addressed. The EU can indeed play a leadership role in environmental negotiations and these strategies/positions will influence two main issues related to climate change : the efficiency of developing countries commitments and, the participation of the US in the international effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The research will be conducted through the implementation of several work packages. A literature review and interviews of decision makers will be perfomed. A simulation and theoretic models will then be constructed on that basis. Finally, a policy analysis will be achieved.
