Capacity-building is essential in the global response to climate change, as recognised in the Convention, the Kyoto Protocol, and the Paris Agreement, and plays a vital role in educating, empowering, and engaging all stakeholders on climate action. Established initiatives such as the Durban Forum on Capacity-building and the Paris Committee on Capacity-building (PCCB), serve as platforms for addressing capacity gaps and needs, enhancing coherence and coordination of capacity-building efforts, sharing experiences and good practices, and monitoring the effectiveness of capacity-building within the international climate change regime.
