Project Factsheet

Summary

The intended impact of the project “UNDP'S CLIMATE PROMISE” is to deliver on the promise of the Paris Agreement, UNDP will support 100 countries to undertake an inclusive and transparent engagement process for enhancing their NDCs by 2020, with demonstrated increase in ambition.

The objective of the project in Kosovo is to Support Kosovo Institutions to set up more ambitious actions to reduce GHG contributions and enhance Action Plan on Climate Change

Goals (What do we want to achieve).

UNDP’s goal is to ensure that all countries enhancing their NDCs can access the necessary financial and technical support to do so. Central to this strategy is UNDP’s engagement with, and through, the NDC Partnership – especially in the context of the Partnership’s new initiative, the Climate Action Enhancement Package (CAEP), which also is supporting enhancement of NDCs and fast-tracking of NDC implementation. UNDP has prioritised three categories of countries under the Promise: ambition champions, Small Island Developing States (SIDS), and high emitters.
