Article Description

This article examines the participation of local stakeholders and the contribution to sustainable development of Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects in Brazil. A mixed textual analysis methodology (qualitative and quantitative) was used to assess 341 Project Design Documents. The results show that most CDM projects described some benefit for sustainable development, as well as indicated that local stakeholders were consulted. However, it was not possible to identify participatory decision-making mechanisms. The study also shows the importance of adopting rules at the local level to strengthen the scope of the two objectives studied.
