Over thirty representatives from nine Caribbean countries (15 May) met in Kingstown, St Vincent and the Grenadines to better position themselves to access funding for climate change mitigation.
Countries in attendance at (the) workshop will use their Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) to develop concept notes which will be presented to development partners, who will also be in attendance. During this workshop, actions and priority areas identified in NAMAs, will be under consideration by development partners.
NAMAs refer to any action that reduces emissions in developing countries and is prepared under the umbrella of a national governmental initiative. The United Nations Development Programme’s Japan-Caribbean Climate Change Partnership (UNDP J-CCCP) has provided support for the development of NAMAs in 7 Caribbean countries since 2017 in the transport, energy and water sectors, as one of the tools to implement countries’ Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC).
