The overall purpose of this work is to identify ICT solutions for negotiators and delegates to access the knowledge and information they need for UNFCCC and other climate change related negotiations.

This project aims to provide legal support to Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) serving LDCs during the UNFCCC process. It also aims to build the capacity and understanding of LDC decision makers on the legal aspects of the negotiations, including through the provision of training workshops and briefing notes.

The International Energy Agency’s (IEA) estimates that by 2030 one billion people in sub-Saharan Africa will depend on biomass as their main energy source. Currently over 80% of people in sub-Saharann Africa depend on solid fuels such as charcoal and firewood– more than any other region in the world. CDKN is supporting the African Clean Cooking Initiative (ACCI), which is designed to support a market-driven approach to increase the use of clean cook stoves in Africa through addressing key market barriers.

This project aims to ensure that the Republic of the Marshall Islands are provided with the legal and technical support to enable them to adequately and constructively take part in the UNFCCC process and Cartagena dialogue.

This project aims to develop and deliver a set of training materials and workshops aimed at developing the knowledge and skills of the least developed and most climate vulnerable country negotiators.

This project aims to support Small Island Developing States (SIDS) delegates on the Green Climate Fund (GCF) Board with technical and strategic analysis.

This project supported a meeting in Mexico of like-minded countries who are working for an ambitious climate change deal. The support provided by CDKN was for the workshop itself and related documents, which acted as a springboard for further work to build an alliance of ambition that cuts across Latin American and African countries, small islands states and least developed countries.

This project aims to organise a workshop to prepare submission of views on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) under the Ad-hoc Working Group on Long-term Cooperative Action (AWG/LCA), the Ad-hoc Working Group on Further Commitments for Annex I parties under the Kyoto Protocol (AWG/KP) and the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA).

This project aims to provide support in the procurement of services to help in building capacity and facilitating the Least Developed Country (LDC) group's participation in the UNFCCC negotiation process.

This project aims to support the financing of the participation of two representatives of the Pacific States to the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP 17) negotiations meeting and to the consultative sessions in particular.

In considering mitigation actions, policy makers not only need to consider the costs and benefits of embarking on a low carbon development path, they also need to consider the socio-economic implications of any action. CDKN is supporting a research project which will develop cutting edge methodologies to link sectoral and economy wide models in order to address issues critical to the development of climate-compatible policy.

The project established a framework agreement with a range of legal and technical suppliers to support the Chair of the Least Developed Country (LDC) negotiating group in the UN climate change process.
