2. Inspiration for SD rules
Article 6 rules can draw the best elements from multiple past and present experiences!

3. Promoting SD for an efficient market
Ignoring SD is a market failure!
SD has value which needs to be captured in the market
Externalities should be taken into consideration

4. How to include SD in the market?
Set positive criteria to encourage projects with large co-benefits
e.g. More efficient indoor cookstoves
Set negative criteria against projects with negative externalities
e.g. Ban coal projects

5. SD for and with local populations
Robust Local Stakeholder Consultation processes
Accessible and effective ways of recourse
Meaningful precautionnary measures against adverse environmental and social impacts

6. Recommendations (At least) two sides to SD: the What and the How
What: prioritise projects with large co-benefits, avoid coal projects, set up robust certification processes
How: inclusive and participatory process, adequate channels of communication and protection for all stakeholders
