- News 10 September 2020 Popular climate model now available in French Calculating current and future greenhouse gas emissions and the effects of climate actions is critical in the global struggle to limit the rise in temperatures. The GACMO model has been developed through more than 20 years of research at UNEP DTU Partnership to help countries calculate and track the emission reduction and estimated economic effects of about a hundred different climate mitigation actions across various energy sectors. Not only are precise calculations a pre-requisite for…
- News 8 September 2020 Trinidad and Tobago - an integrated approach to NDCs and TNA UNEP DTU Partnership recently asked the National Technology Needs Assessment (TNA) Coordinator for Trinidad and Tobago, Kishan Kumarsingh, about his country's approach to TNA. Mr Kumarsingh is Head of the Multilateral Environmental Agreements Unit at the Ministry of Planning and Development.

It should be viewed as an opportunity to identify, assess, adapt, adopt, synergise, and implement…
- News 26 August 2020 WEBINAR - The development of long-term low-emission development strategies We call on parties to the Paris Agreement to formulate and communicate long-term low emission development strategies (LT-LEDS) with their national pathways for greenhouse gas emission until 2050 and beyond. These strategies are fundamental tools available for countries to envision the alignment of low-emission development with broader sustainability, socio-economic and climate change adaptation goals. With this webinar UNEP DTU Partnership along with the CBIT Global Coordination Platform and…
- Project 14 August 2020 Global Support Programme The Global Support Programme is a UNEP and United Nations Environment Programme (UNDP) implemented programme that provides support to non-Annex I Parties in order to prepare quality National Communications (NCs) and Biennial Update Reports (BURs) that are submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in a timely manner.

Therefore, transparency efforts need to be developed to ensure that the many private sector and other non-state actor actions are…
- News 25 June 2020 Mexico set to improve transparency in National Reporting and maximise impact on climate actions at subnational level Building transparency in subnational reporting The Paris Agreement and its transparency mechanism underscore the need for countries to track progress in the implementation of actions set forth in their Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One part of this implies linking the efforts made by subnational entities by properly accounting for their contribution to the NDC. As such, several countries are currently seeking methodologies to assess the climate…
- Project 19 June 2020 Methodologies for quantification of mitigation actions at subnational level in mexico Tracking the progress of implementation of mitigation actions included by countries in their Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) is at the core of the Paris Agreement and its transparency mechanisms. At country level this might lead to more accurate and comprehensive planning, and developing policies to support actions that help achieve national targets or even go beyond them. Currently, several countries are seeking how to assess quantitatively climate mitigation undertaken by subnational…
