UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre’s Post

Last week, the Capacity-building Initiative for Transparency - Global Support Programme (CBIT-GSP) had two of its 10 Regional Transparency Network Coordinators visiting UNEP Copenhagen #Climate Centre. During the visit, results of the capacity needs assessment and help desk requests were analyzed and a draft workplan for #transparency capacity building support for the Lusophone and Francophone networks including urgent support request by countries for 2023 developed. Work in the Networks is conducted in close collaboration with UNDP’s #ClimatePromise Programme with funding from Belgium. Moussa Diop, Thiago Mendes, Agré M.

Article 6 road show takes off in Zambia🗺 First steps in shaping a community for knowledge generation, sharing, and implementation, creating stronger links between research, governments and #climateaction. #Carbonmarkets under #Article6 of the #ParisAgreement can help improve the cost-effectiveness of #emissionsreduction and achieve countries’ #climategoals and commitments. But how can the #academia help build the needed capacity for applied research to ensure the best outcomes? In December, UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre started the Article 6 “Road Show”, visiting countries in the Supporting Preparedness for Article 6 Cooperation (#SPAR6C) project, to assist them in doing just that.
