Discussions on the merits of a longer term network of organizations and individuals interested in future collaboration work on modeling an climate policy in China were positive to such an idea & agreed that “bridging mechanisms” would be useful to induce higher levels of engagement between policymakers and modellers. It was considered, however, that this would be best be undertaken outside the limited resources and timeframe of the BASIC Project and should ideally be led by organizations that were specialized in modelling related networking activities such as the Energy Modelling Forum. The Beijing meeting also provided an opportunity for the Task 4 Team and BASIC members from WRI to do a BASIC “side-event” on tools and negotiating capacity relating to international climate policy post 2012 as well as team members from Brazil and South Africa to provide progress reports on their w...
