The NDC Explorer: Launch of Interactive Tool and Discussion in the Context of Africa’s Ambitions and Issues of LULUCF and REDD+

Side Events (Co-) Hosted by the African Centre for Technology Studies (ACTS) at COP 22

Time: 15:00 - 16:30

Location: Green Zone (Ziz)

Hosts: German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik ( DIE); African Centre for Technology Studies (ACTS)

As part of the NDC Partnership, the DIE is developing the ‘NDC Explorer’ together with ACTS and with support of the UNFCCC secretariat. It is an interactive online tool which provides a broad array of users with a sophisticated lens to analyse and compare INDCs and NDCs of all Parties. It is an extension of the successful INDC Content Explorer, and will include 60 sub-categories on Mitigation (including REDD+), Adaptation, Finance and Support, Planning and Process and a broader picture beyond UNFCCC negotiations. In this event, the NDC Explorer will be launched, and it will also be used to provide a regional perspective and a sectoral perspective and of potential challenges for implementing INDCs.
