Using the Global Stocktake to increase national climate policy ambition and improve implementation

"CSIR researchers in climate change have studied and highlighted the varying challenges and drivers related to climate ambition in Ethiopia, Ghana, Norway, Saudi Arabia and South Africa.

The main objectives of the study were to investigate how greater climate ambition might play out in specific countries, obtain insights on ongoing climate change actions at national level, assess the relationship between national climate action and the GST, and gain insights into the interplay of national-level climate change actions and international climate politics under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), as well as related challenges and opportunities. The report highlighted various drivers and challenges related to climate ambition in the five countries, selected based on their widely varying circumstances and their importance to the achievement of the Paris Agreement goals."
