Annual Status Report on Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs)

The Annual Status Report on NAMAs 2012 is a continuation of previously published NAMA Status Reports. The report presents an overview of the state of play of NAMAs and of support activities for NAMA development and implementation.

Overview of the state of play of NAMAs

A new feature of the Annual Status Report on NAMAs 2012 is that it is produced as a joint effort by several organizations that are closely involved in analysing and supporting NAMA development processes worldwide. The Annual Status Report on NAMAs 2012 is written by authors from Ecofys, the Energy research Centre of the Netherlands, the Center of Clean Air Policy (CCAP), the World Resources Institute (WRI) and Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).

"Food for thought” on potential ways forward for NAMAs

In the section on “Selected contributions on NAMAs”, each organization discusses a specific topic of interest in relation to NAMA development that is closely related to their current NAMA activities or that is expected to provide “food for thought” on potential ways forward for NAMAs.

Those topics are:

  • Ambitious NAMAs and national climate governance
  • Crafting the finance component of a supported NAMA
  • MRV of NAMAs
  • Capacity development with GIZ Mitigation tools
  • Learning from results-based finance for NAMA implementation?

Discusses key issues and observations

As in the previous edition, the last chapter of the Status Report discusses key issues and observations associated with NAMA development. This is based on interviews with developing countries, development agencies, funders and technical assistance practitioners in an attempt to capture a wide range of experiences and views.
