The Conference of the Parties and the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (COP) at its twenty-fifth session, the Conference of the Parties and the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP) at its fifteenth session, and the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement (CMA) at its second session agreed on workplan of the forum on impacts of the implementation of response measure (the forum) and its Katowice Committee on the Impacts of the Implementation of Response Measures (KCI).
As part of this work plan, the Parties agreed to hold a regional workshop for activity no.3 titled “Facilitate the development, enhancement, customization and use of tools and methodologies for modelling and assessing the impacts of the implementation of response measures, including identifying and reviewing existing tools and approaches in data-poor environments, in consultation with technical experts, practitioners and other relevant stakeholders”.
In addition, the COP at its twenty-sixth session, the CMP at its sixteenth session, and the CMA at its third session, specifically mandated that the secretariat organize this workshop prior to the fifty-sixth sessions of the subsidiary bodies which will take place in June 2022.
Objectives
In line with the mandate, the workshop aims to address regional needs to facilitate the use of tools and methodologies to undertake assessment and analysis of impacts of implementation of mitigation actions by countries in the LAC region and SIDs.
