Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs)

The Conference of the Parties (COP), by its decisions 1/CP.19 and 1/CP.20, invited all Parties to communicate to the secretariat their intended nationally determined contributions (INDCs) well in advance of COP 21 (by the first quarter of 2015 by those Parties ready to do so) in a manner that facilitates the clarity, transparency and understanding of the INDCs.

Synthesis report on the aggregate effect of intended nationally determined contributions

The secretariat prepared a synthesis report on the aggregate effect of the INDCs. The report was published on 1 November 2015 and became one of the key documents for governments to understand their collective effort on climate change and to shape the discussions and negotiations in Paris.

An update of the synthesis report was prepared and published by the secretariat on 2 May 2016 to include the additional INDCs submitted until 4 April 2016.
