- Publication 16 August 2021 Developing INDCs: a guidance note The objective of this note is to explain the elements of the Lima Decision and its implications for developing INDCs. Further, the note explains different ways in which countries could express the mitigation and adaptation components of their INDC. Developing countries, given their development needs and low capability, would need means of implementation (MoI) for adaptation and to take ambitious mitigation actions. Developing countries would include MoI needs in the context of mitigation and…
- Publication 16 August 2021 Zero Carbon Latin America - A pathway for net decarbonisation of the regional economy by mid-century The objective of the analysis presented in this report is to visualize a pathway for complete decarbonisation of the Latin American and the Caribbean (LAC) regional economy by mid-century. This is achieved through a review of specific sector-wide actions, within a foreseeable technology and economics context. The analysis is being conducted at a time of considerable momentum in addressing the climate challenge globally, and after a decade of remarkable socio-economic progress at the regional…
- Publication 16 August 2021 Framework for measuring sustainable development in NAMAs The research project ‘Measuring sustainable development (SD) in Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs)’ was initiated by the NAMA Partnership Working Group on Sustainable Development (WG-SD). The aim of the research project is to improve quantitative and qualitative measurement of the SD outcomes of NAMAs, thereby enhancing understanding of how NAMAs can contribute to meeting national development goals. The UNEP DTU Partnership (UDP), in collaboration with the International Institute…

- Publication 16 August 2021 The Adaptation Finance Gap Update - with insights from the INDCs In 2014 the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) published its first global Adaptation Gap Report (AGR 2014) (UNEP, 2014), which put forward a preliminary framework for assessing adaptation gaps along with an initial assessment in three selected areas: finance, technology and knowledge. Further to the positive reception of this report, several countries requested UNEP to produce follow up reports focusing on specific adaptation gaps. In response to these requests, UNEP has commissioned a…
- Publication 16 August 2021 Uncertainty in greenhouse-gas emission scenario projections: Experiences from Mexico and South Africa This report outlines approaches to quantify the uncertainty associated with national greenhouse-gas emission scenario projections. It does so by describing practical applications of those approaches in two countries – Mexico and South Africa. The goal of the report is to promote uncertainty quantification, because quantifying uncertainty has the potential to foster more robust climate-change mitigation plans. To this end the report also summarises the rationale for quantifying uncertainty in…
