Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), Long-Term Low Emission Development Strategies (LT-LEDS) Expert and Coordinator
Background
The implementation of countries’ NDCs and LT-LEDS constitutes the bulk of climate action, which will reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, as well as enhance resilience. Facilitating NDC and LT-LEDS development and implementation is undertaken by the RCCs as part of their global
work plan.
At the twenty-first session of the Conference of Parties (COP) in 2015, in accordance with Article 4.9 of the Paris Agreement, Parties were asked to communicate an NDC every five years in accordance with decision 1/CP.21, and other relevant decisions of the CMA, as well as be informed by the outcomes of the Global Stocktake (GST).
Furthermore, Decision 1/CMA.3 from COP26 urges Parties that have not yet communicated new or updated NDCs to do so as soon as possible in advance of the fourth session of the CMA (Decision 1/CMA.3, para 28). The decision requests Parties to revisit and strengthen the 2030 targets in their NDCs as necessary to align with the Paris Agreement temperature goal by the end of 2022, taking into account different national circumstances and recalling Article 3 and Article 4, paras 3, 4, 5 and 11 (Decision 1/CMA.3, para 29).
Furthermore, in accordance with Article 4, paragraph 19 of the Paris Agreement, all Parties should strive to formulate and communicate long-term low greenhouse gas emission development strategies (LT-LEDS), mindful of Article 2 taking into account their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, in the light of different national circumstances.
CMA 3 urged Parties that have not yet done so to communicate, by CMA 4, an LT-LEDS towards just transitions to net zero emissions by or around mid-century. The CMA also invited Parties to update their LT-LEDS regularly, as appropriate, in line with the best available science, and noted the importance of aligning NDCs with LT-LEDS.
In this context, the UNFCCC-EADB Regional Collaboration Centre for Eastern and Southern Africa, based in Kampala, is seeking an NDC, LT-LEDS Expert and Coordinator to support this work on climate action implementation in the region.
