4- Perspectives Develop more CDM projects in promising sectors : industry, transport, building, agriculture, forestry.. Develop more the Morocco CDM projects portfolio Develop the involvement of civil society in CDM,in particular active NGOs on the ground,so that we can benefit from this mechanism of small scale projects with positive social and environmental impact.
