"Towards the consolidation of a monitoring system of support received"
Wednesday, October 25
 2pm CET
The Paris Agreement provides specific mandates to improve the reporting of climate finance information in its Article 9 and 13. While so far a strong emphasis has been put on MRV of support provided and mobilized, "MRV of support received" will also play an important role in a robust MRV system, as a way to strengthen a bottom up approach where recipient countries play a major role. But what are current processes under the UNFCCC? What global initiatives are ongoing in the context of MRV of support received? What advantages and challenges would MRV of support received entail? What are some country experiences?

These and more questions will be discussed by different organizations and climate finance experts. The goal is to give an overview of the concept behind establishing a system of MRV of support received and elaborating recommendations for the climate negotiations at the 23rd Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC to
be hold in Bonn, Germany.

 “Tracking domestic climate finance flows in developing countries: lessons and challenges”.
Thursday, October 26

Boston: 9:30-10:30
Bangkok: 20:30-21:30

 
Climate finance is a crucial element for the implementation of climate actions.  In order to understand the financing gaps and the financial opportunities available to developing countries, it is important to  have information on  how much money they can access from global climate funds and how much domestic finance is already available through national public expenditures.  Countries are starting to track both domestic and international finance flows to increase transparency on climate finance.  This is  important in the context of compliance to the Paris Agreement’s Transparency Initiative.  UNDP in partnership with GFLAC conducted a study to understand the gaps, the challenges and the lessons from countries’ experiences on reporting climate finance.  The report  identifies the needs and suggests ways to support countries in their efforts to measure, report and verify climate finance flows. The webinar will have the following objectives:
 
OBJECTIVES:
  • Present the results of the study conducted by UNDP and GFLAC regarding tracking domestic climate finance, particularly adaptation climate flows in six countries: Colombia, Guatemala, Kenya, Nepal, The Philippines and Zambia.
  • Discuss the challenges and the lessons learned in this study to provide inputs and recommendations that may inform global processes under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
  • Receive inputs from participants to further strengthen the global discourse and to support the work related to tracking climate finance at the national level.
