Organisational context

Positions
CORSIA WG focuses on ICAO CORSIA scheme implementation.
Active initiatives
Phase II eligibility; aviation-sector compliance; methodology review.
Pressures
ICAO CAEP criteria updates; airline compliance pressure.

Specific alignment

Why this recipient benefits: WG support for per-tonne evidentiary disclosure as a CORSIA-eligible-unit reinforcement property for Phase II eligibility raises the aviation-sector integrity floor. Pinter's Verra role means the position feeds directly into Verra's CORSIA-methodology reviews.

Why now: ICAO CAEP cycle.

The ask: WG technical submission to ICAO CAEP. Schema alignment with CORSIA eligibility criteria; Verra-methodology integration analysis.

Why IETA is the right venue

IETA is the business voice of the emissions-trading industry. IETA working-group endorsement of per-tonne evidentiary disclosure translates immediately into uptake by member companies — traders, project developers, verification firms, and corporate offtake buyers. The ~300 IETA members are also the actors who will price proof-pack-equipped credits once they exist.

The three org-level IETA documents — the Integration Whitepaper, Partnership Proposal, and Technology Alignment Analysis — should be presented at the relevant working group rather than at the board level first. Working-group-level engagement is where the technical acceptance happens; board-level engagement is where the organisational endorsement follows.
