TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAMME

In 2023, the first global stocktake of the Paris Agreement resulted in the establishment of the Technology Implementation Programme (1/CMA.5, paragraph 110).

OBJECTIVES

The Technology Implementation Programme aims to:

• Strengthen support for the implementation of technology priorities identified by developing countries, e.g. in NDCs, TNAs, NAPs and LT-LEDS.
  
  
• Address the challenges identified in the first periodic assessment of the Technology Mechanism (FCCC/SBI/2022/13, paragraph 68), including limited resources of the Technology Mechanism, assessment of its quantitative impacts, lack of follow-up activities on CTCN technical assistance, and lack of support for national focal points for technology development and transfer, among others.

NEXT STEPS

At CMA 6 in Baku (Decision 18/CMA.6), Parties decided to launch a process for elaborating the technology implementation programme and requested the SBI 62 to consider this matter based on results of Parties’ deliberations, as contained in the draft text available on the UNFCCC website, while recognizing that the draft text does not represent consensus among Parties, and with a view to recommending a draft decision for consideration and adoption by the CMA 7.
