About
INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS: CCAP IS WORKING TO SUPPORT THE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF NATIONALLY APPROPRIATE MITIGATION ACTIONS (NAMAS) AND LOW-EMISSIONS DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES (LEDS) IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES THROUGH REGIONALLY-BASED DIALOGUES, WEB-BASED EXCHANGES, AND PRACTITIONER NETWORKS. RECENT UNFCCC NEGOTIATIONS HAVE MADE IT CLEAR THAT CLIMATE PROTECTION WILL DEPEND ON ACTIONS ON THE GROUND IN BOTH DEVELOPING AND DEVELOPED COUNTRIES. IN RECENT YEARS, DEVELOPING COUNTRIES HAVE SHOWN A SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENT TO REDUCING EMISSIONS UNILATERALLY AND BEING INVOLVED IN THE ULTIMATE CLIMATE SOLUTION. THE MAIN INITIATIVE WORKS TO IDENTIFY AND HIGHLIGHT THE MOST SUCCESSFUL DEVELOPING COUNTRY MITIGATION POLICIES AND USES THESE LESSONS TO ASSIST OTHER COUNTRIES IN REFINING THEIR POLICIES AND IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORKS IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE AMBITIOUS MITIGATION ACTIONS.THIS INITIATIVE IS DESIGNED TO:- IMPROVE PARTICIPANT COUNTRY'S CAPACITY TO DESIGN, PLAN AND IMPLEMENT NAMAS THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH ANY LEDS OR NATIONAL SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PLANS. ALLOWS PARTICIPANT TO LEARN FROM PEERS ON REAL-WORLD STRATEGIES TO DEVELOP, FINANCE AND IMPLEMENT HIGHLY EFFECTIVE AND COST-COMPETITIVE NAMAS.- HARVEST BEST PRACTICES IN NAMA DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION AND PROVIDE PARTICIPANTS WITH EXAMPLES OF SUCCESSFUL BOTTOM-UP STRATEGIES INFORMED BY ON-THE-GROUND, IN-COUNTRY EXPERIENCES. THESE EXAMPLES WILL OFFER AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO ACHIEVE SIGNIFICANT EMISSION REDUCTIONS.- PROMOTE COLLABORATIVE FINANCING FOR SUCH ACTIONS BY PROVIDING STRATEGIES TO MAKE NAMAS ATTRACTIVE TO POSSIBLE FUNDERS FROM DONOR COUNTRIES, INCLUDING MEETING EXPECTATIONS FOR MONITORING, REPORTING AND VERIFICATION (MRV). MAIN DIALOGUES WILL ALSO HELP FINANCE OFFICIALS BETTER UNDERSTAND THE CHALLENGES FACED IN NAMA DEVELOPMENT AND HOW FUNDING CAN BEST SUPPORT EFFECTIVE DEVELOPING COUNTRY POLICY OUTCOMES.- HELP DEFINE A LONGER-TERM INTERNATIONAL PROGRAM OF ACTION THAT PRODUCES GLOBAL GHG REDUCTIONS SUFFICIENT TO LIMIT ADVERSE IMPACTS FROM CLIMATE CHANGE.- PROVIDE PARTICIPANTS WITH A NETWORK OF PERSONAL CONTACTS IN OTHER DEVELOPING COUNTRIES AND WITH POSSIBLE FUNDERS FROM DEVELOPED COUNTRIES WHO COULD SUPPORT AMBITIOUS NAMAS.
