Measuring capacity progress in climate transparency under the GST A collaborative discussion to enhance coherence and effectiveness of future capacity-building endeavors December 4th, 2023 | Effective Capacity-building Day | COP28 Co-Organizers: Greenhouse Gas Management Institute; Institute for Global Environmental Strategies; and Council on Energy, Environment, and Water
Event Agenda 10 Minutes: Introductory presentation on measuring capacity progress in climate transparency under the GST 30 Minutes: Facilitated small group discussion 15 Minutes: Session close and networking
Lack of capacity, lack of support, but what is it exactly we want to change? Lack of capacity, lack of support, but what is it exactly we want to change? Modified from a presentation by Gillenwater M., How Enhanced Monitoring & Evaluation can deliver Transparency and Capacity Building, at Enhancing coordination on climate transparency (2019, Rome)
Capacity for Climate Transparency under the Paris Agreement Why transparency? Report, review & consider Plan Foundation for informed domestic policy-making and actions (NDC) PA s objectives Building trust and confidence Inputs to the GST to assess the collective progress of all Parties Implement Modified from UNFCCC (2022), Reference Manual for the Enhanced Transparency Framework under the Paris Agreement
Challenge and opportunity at the time of GST1 Indicators of progress on capacity-building are difficult to monitor2) Lack of consensus on what transparency capacity should constitute1) Under the Paris Agreement no framework [ ] was put in place3) To be effective, capacity-building needs [ ] underlying social and economic systems2) In 2024, Parties will submit their first BTR, which is a key step to enhance transparency2) Country ownership of [ ] capacity-building interventions is fundamental2) 1) White M et al. (2023); 2) UNFCCC (2023); 3) UNFCCC (2022)
Measurement Framework for Transparency Capacity
Transparency improves over time Transparency improves over time and so does measurement of capacity for transparency of capacity for transparency and so does measurement Debatable, non-existent or small-n datasets Clear, non-existent or small-n datasets Third- priority or wish list Second- priority effort for GST3 Clear, existing large-n datasets First-priority effort for GST2 Based on White M et al. (2023) Measuring Capacity Progress in Climate Transparency: A Framework to Inform Future Work .
Small Group Discussion (30 minutes) What capacity-building indicators should we prioritize for future research and evaluation? How could we foster and increase capacity-building indicator data availability?
To Close (15 minutes) Ask someone in this room for advice, ideas, connections, or information that might help you advance one capacity-building measurement need of your own. Offer to someone advice, ideas, connections, or information that might help someone advance measuring capacity-building.
