  1. United Nations Development Programme Technical Support to Non-Annex I Parties for the Preparation of National Communications Bo Lim UNFCCC CGE Workshop 8-10 April 2003, Mauritius

  2. Overview • Phase I: GEF-NCSP, 1998-2000 • Phase II: GEF-UNDP Projects, 2001-2002 • Phase III: NCSU, 2003-2006

  3. Phase I: NCSP Technical assistance for the preparation of Initial National Communications: • 30 Thematic and Regional Workshops • Technical Materials • Newsletter, website, and list server • On-line assistance • Reviews of draft national communications • 130 NAI Parties

  4. Phase II: UNDP-GEF Projects Preparation of regional and global projects: • Vulnerability and Adaptation (8) • Regional NAPA Training workshops (46) • GHG inventories (30) • Technology needs assessments (70) • Global climate observing systems (140)

  5. Phase III: NCSU To provide technical support to non-Annex I Parties through GEF-UNDP projects: • National Communications (30) • Second Phase Enabling Activities (70) • National Adaptation Programmes of Action (15) • Cross-cutting Capacity Development (70) All countries can potentially benefit

  6. Vulnerability and Adaptation To provide guidance to assist countries prepare adaptation policies and measures and related analysis: Input to SNC: Publications: • Adaptation Policy Framework • Socio-economic Scenarios • High Resolution Climate Change Scenarios Using PRECIS • Magic/Scengen

  7. Technology Needs Assessments To provide a practical approach for assessing technology needs: Input to ‘Top-ups’ Publication: • Approach for Technology Needs Assessments • Workshops: • UNFCCC/UNDP Expert Meeting (Seoul, 23-25 April 2002) • UNDP–GEF Workshop in Africa (Dakar, 11-12 Dec 2002) • Training workshops planned: • - Caribbean (May 2003) • - Eastern Europe (July 2003)

  8. GHG Inventories To improve the quality of inventories: To build capacity for data archiving, updating, and management: Input to SNC Publication: • Training Tools for Good Practice Guidance in National GHG Inventories

  9. Climate Observing Systems To identify long-term solutions for improving climate observing networks at the regional level: To address reporting needs of NAI countries: Input to ‘Top-ups’ Publications: • 10 Regional Action Plans (4 draft plans available) • Workshops: • 10 Regional Workshops through 2006 (five completed)

  10. Knowledge Network(1) To facilitate dissemination/exchange of information and knowledge to assist countries: The network will: • establish thematic discussions on climate change issues • involving stakeholders at all levels, e.g. project coordinators, national experts, institutions, etc. • provide a means of a cross-fertilisation of ideas

  11. Knowledge Network (2) • Web page will be established to: • Provide technical assistance • Facilitate information sharing • Solicit feedback on draft papers • Disseminate national studies, methods and tools • Newsletters, events, links • Network will be established by mid 2003 • Regional partners

  12. Co-ordination Mechanism • Countries to be surveyed on priorities • Feedback from: • UNDP, UNEP, WB • UNFCCC • GEF • Bilateral • Teleconferences regularly (UNFCCC meetings)

  13. Contact details • Latin America, including Caribbean: Catherine Valle • Southern & Eastern Africa: Martin Krause • West and Central Africa: Mathieu Koumoin • Eastern/CIS: Susan Legro, Geordie Colville • Asia/Pacific: Manual Soriano • New York: Richard Hosier, Nandita Mongia, • Rebecca Carman, Yamil Bonduki and Bo Lim • Acknowledgements: • GEF, UNDP, EU, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Canada, The Netherlands

  14. Looking to the Future • What did we learn from FNC? • Use NC as strategic framework • Launch effective national processes to consider climate • Go beyond the National Communications by • prioritizing follow-up actions, in which climate is • rarely the key driver • Tools and methods are a means to an end • (can be resource intensive) • What should we do differently for SNC? • Design the project proposals more carefully, more country • driven---institutional framework • Promote sub-regional information/peer review sharing
