Workshop objectives

• Learning objectives
• To be aware of the benefits and the challenges of
  mainstreaming climate change adaptation and
  mitigation in national development planning and
  budgeting
• To be familiar with a framework and tools
  available for mainstreaming climate change
• Expected outcomes
• To convince key decision makers about the need to
  mainstreaming climate change into national
  development planning and budgeting
• To share your views, knowledge and experience

What is the GCCA ? Two complementary pillars
4
Enhanced dialogue with developing countries on
climate change (Pillar 1)

• Convergence of visions on a post-2012 climate
  regime
• Regional conferences and declarations
• Asia, May 2010
• Africa, October 2010
• Pacific, March 2011
• Caribbean, March 2011
• Side events at UNFCC Cop
• National policy dialogues (see pillar 2)

5
Increased support for climate change

• Second pillar of the GCCA
• 206 million (2008-2011)
• 83 million (2012-2013)
• Promote approaches to integrate climate change
  into development planning and budgeting
• Focus on integration of climate change in poverty
  reduction efforts, adaptation in water and
  agriculture, REDD, CDM and DRR
• Mainstreaming programmes and workshops
• Implementation of NAPAs
• Budget support as preferred modality

6
Technical and Financial support (Pillar 2)- What
are the priorities ?

• Mainstreaming climate change into poverty
• reduction and development efforts
• Adaptation actions in particular water and
  agriculture sectors
• Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest
  degradation (REDD)
• Enhancing participation in the global carbon
  market
• Disaster Risk reduction (DRR)
