What is the CGE?

The COP established the Consultative Group of Experts on National Communications from Parties not included in Annex I to the Convention (CGE) with the objective of improving the process of preparation of national communications from non-Annex I Parties.

The CGE is composed of 24 members representing the following: five members each from Africa, Asia and the Pacific, and Latin America and the Caribbean; six members from Annex I Parties; one member each from three international organizations.

To facilitate its work, the CGE set up the following four thematic groups: national GHG inventories, vulnerability and adaptation assessments, mitigation and cross-cutting issues which includes research and systematic observation, technology transfer, capacity-building, education, training and public awareness, information and networking and financial and technical support.
