5 Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) The term was first used in the Bali Action Plan (UN Climate Change Conference 2007); however a final definition of NAMAs has not been concluded under the UNFCCC. Country-led mitigation actions based on its national circumstances and priority Reduce GHG emissions or enhance sequestration Support sustainable development Why pursuing NAMAs now? Registration at the UNFCCC registry for NAMA Financing resources: enhance readiness (capacity building & identify opportunity) quick funding opportunities for implementation (while awaiting UNFCCC negotiation) 5

6 Bottom-up Categorising NAMAs Top-down 1. Goals: Economy-wide or sectoral goals that are expressed with target in absolute reduction, BAU deviation or intensity. 2. Policy/Strategy/Plan: Comprehensive long term plan designed to achieve a common objective or goal. 3. Programme/Measure: Government led initiatives to be implemented through policy instruments. 4. Project: Localised capital investment for lowemission technology, infrastructure or machinery in a specified location. 6

7 Types of NAMAs Domestically supported NAMAs Mitigation actions occur with domestic resources, mostly by the public sector. Internationally supported NAMAs Mitigation actions implemented with international financing resources by leveraging domestic investments. NAMAs for Recognition NAMAs Seeking Support Preparation Implementation UNFCCC NAMA Registry Bilateral or multilateral sources Development Aid International / Regional Projects Global Env. Facility Green Climate Fund CC/NAMA Specific Facilities

8 Potential Fund The NAMA Facility Jointly provided by Germany and the UK; announced at COP 18 in Doha 2012 Support to developing countries for the implementation of parts of their NAMAs through the provision of financial support and technical cooperation instruments.

13 Low Emission Capacity Building (LECB) Project The LECB Project aims to assist Malaysia in enhancing national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory systems, promoting the uptake of nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMA) as well as designing measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) framework that ultimately serves national priorities for low emission development strategy. The UNDP LECB Programme is supported through contributions by the European Commission, the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, and the Government of Australia.
