GCET27 - 27th Global Conference on Environmental Taxation

GCET27 is organised by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). In Berlin, there is a unique vantage point on current debates where environmental taxation, public finance, climate policy, and international cooperation increasingly intersect, both in research and in practice.

This year’s conference theme, International Climate Finance, focuses on a core challenge of climate policy: how to mobilise financial resources at scale while designing instruments that are effective, feasible, and fair? Across the programme participants will examine how environmental taxes, carbon pricing, subsidy reforms, and related market based approaches can support mitigation and adaptation, enable just transitions, and strengthen international collaboration. Contributions that engage with the theme through legal, institutional, and sector specific lenses, including hard to abate international sectors, are welcome.

A core feature of GCET is to connect rigorous, policy-oriented academic work with implementation experience from policy-makers: The parallel sessions enable deep feedback and exchange, and the keynote lectures and panels allow for a broader perspective to connect ideas across disciplines.
