The new round of NDCs, to be submitted by early 2025, provides an opportunity to develop national climate plans that are aligned with countries’ development priorities, circumstances, and sustainable development pathways while driving the transformational implementation of mitigation and adaptation action through unlocking finance and ensuring that no one is left behind. 

At COP 28, the Paris Committee on Capacity Building (PCCB) was mandated to identify, in coordination with Parties, other constituted bodies and programmes and relevant stakeholders, current activities for enhancing the capacity of developing countries to prepare and implement nationally determined contributions. The CMA also requested the secretariat to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and good practices for the preparation and implementation of nationally determined contributions, including through workshops.  

This workshop will synthesize the learnings from previous efforts, including the SB 60 workshop and the NDC 3.0 Regional Forums, and will provide a platform for Parties to engage in peer-to-peer learning. Participants will address key capacity-building gaps and needs in NDC preparation and implementation while highlighting successful practices. The workshop will also feature an interactive session where countries, international organizations, and donors can exchange knowledge and foster collaboration in an informal setting. This will facilitate deeper connections and practical discussions on mobilizing support and technical assistance for NDC implementation.
