- News 6 December 2023 COP28: Technology needs and the Global Stocktake Climate Technology is a key part of the global stocktake, and the alignment of Technology Needs Assessments (TNAs) with climate commitments was the hot topic at an official COP28 side event this week. The Global Stocktake is a crucial part of this year’s COP28 as it will assess collective progress towards the Paris Agreement’s long-term goals. The "Accelerating NDC Implementation and Addressing Global Stocktake Outcomes Through TNAs" event focused on the integration of TNAs with Nationally…
- News 30 November 2023 Meet UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre at COP28 Together with our partners, UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre joins the efforts to prevent global temperatures from rising above 1.5C and protect our planet and people from the intensifying impacts of climate change. COP28 marks the conclusion of the first Global Stocktake, the main mechanism to assess progress under the Paris Agreement to help align the efforts on climate action and bridge the gaps in progress. At COP28, UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre will engage in a broad range of events and…
- Event 28 November 2023 A Stocktake: From Climate Technology Needs to Implementation The world is at a critical turning point in the battle against the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, a crisis that knows no boundaries and has cross-generational impacts. The number of extreme weather events over the last 30 years has been staggering, and 2023 has been no exception. Meeting national and international climate targets requires efficient and rapid scaling up of the implementation and use of climate technologies, which, in addition to…
- Event 28 November 2023 Upscaling implementation of climate compatible infrastructure in fragile states Climate change poses grave threats to countries across the world—but especially fragile and conflict-affected state and it is vital to that they come up with solutions to support these vulnerable countries. From Yemen to Somalia and Sudan, fragile states suffer more from floods, droughts, storms and other climate-related shocks than other countries, when they have contributed the least to climate change. Each year, three times more people are affected by natural disasters in fragile states than…
- Event 28 November 2023 Accelerating NDC implementation and addressing global stocktake outcomes through TNAs Nationally determined contributions (NDCs) are at the heart of the Paris Agreement and the achievement of its long-term goals. However, numerous developing countries confront significant challenges in fulfilling their NDC targets, largely due to limited access to advanced climate technologies and financial resources. Technology Needs Assessments (TNAs) stands as a crucial process under the UNFCCC, assisting developing countries in identifying and prioritizing their technology needs for climate…
- Event 28 November 2023 Climate Technology for Agriculture - Upscaling Implementation of Climate Technology in the Agricultural Sector Climate technologies are only moderately implemented in many countries. As the impacts of climate change become increasingly visible across the globe, enhancing cooperative action, which is the focus of this event, on technology development and transfer becomes even more important. This event focuses on how to replicate good practice and upscale implementation of climate technologies in the agricultural sector in a global south context. Speakers: Keynote: Jeppe Bruus, Minister, Ministry of…
- News 24 November 2023 Climate technology progress: New report explores urban transformations Today, the 2023 Climate Technology Progress Report was launched, providing invaluable insights into how we can speed up critical implementation of the technologies needed to mitigate and adapt to the climate crisis. The world is at a critical turning point in the battle against the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. Unfortunately, the current pace and scale of global action is insufficient to tackle climate change. Even though global commitment to the…
