- News 4 November 2022 How to meet the needs for climate technology transfer New research from UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre dives deeper into the role of development assistance (ODA) flows in climate mitigation and adaptation technologies. In a new policy brief, the research highlights the climate technology needs of developing countries, as collated through technology needs assessments, and tracks the development finance resources channeled to climate technologies, to conduct analysis and reveal shared insights. Looking at the specific bottlenecks that constrain the…
- Publication 4 November 2022 Technology Transfer for Climate Mitigation and Adaptation This policy brief dives deeper into the role of development assistance (ODA) flows in climate mitigation and adaptation technologies. It highlights the climate technology needs of developing countries, as collated through the technology needs assessment TNA, and tracks the development finance resources channeled to climate technologies, drawing on the DAC database of the OECD, to conduct analysis and reveal shared insights. It provides granular data on the prioritized mitigation and adaptation…

- News 3 November 2022 Adaptation Gap Report: Adapting to climate change must become a global priority As climate impacts intensify across the globe, nations must dramatically increase funding and implementation of actions designed to help vulnerable nations and communities adapt to the climate storm, according to a new United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) report. Released ahead of COP27 – the latest round of climate talks taking place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt – The Adaptation Gap Report 2022: Too Little, Too Slow – Climate adaptation failure puts world at risk, finds that global…
- News 1 November 2022 The Climate Technology Progress Report Effective development and transfer of climate technologies is more crucial than ever. Green technology is key to sustainable development while tackling the interlinked issues of the triple planetary crisis that humanity currently faces: climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss. But, how do we assess progress on climate technology? The new Climate Technology Progress Report 2022 aims to bring more clarity on what leads to successful development and transfer of technology, and to the gaps…

- Publication 1 November 2022 How (not) to pay - Field experimental evidence on the design of REDD plus payments Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) can use many design features. We investigate the impact of payment conditionality types, i.e. different specifications when to pay and when not to pay, for PES on deforestation and agricultural production in a lab-in-the-field experiment Our experiment also tests variations in contract period and payment volatility. We designed a highly visual simulation game to characterize the decision situation of a cattle rancher in Brazil. The player can expand…
- Publication 1 November 2022 A review of China’s approaches toward a sustainable energy future: the period since 1990 China’s rapid economic growth in the past few decades has been accompanied by huge increases in energy demand. The Chinese energy sector faces the multiple challenges of mobilizing huge investment to keep energy supplies in line with increases in demand, securing international oil and gas supplies to meet the widening gap between domestic demand and supply, and reducing environmental pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Identifying China’s approaches toward ensuring a sustainable energy…
