1. 2017 Asia Pacific Carbon Forum
NAMA Facility
Supporting countries in the implementation of Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs)
2017 Asia Pacific Carbon Forum
Bangkok, 13 December 2017

2. Introduction - the NAMA Facility (1)
What is it about?
The NAMA Facility supports developing countries and emerging economies in implementing ambitious actions to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions, NAMAs) as building blocks for the realization of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement.
Supported mitigation projects should demonstrate how they are:
Country-led and embedded in national development strategies and plans.
Integrated into sector-wide programmes or policies with specific reference to a NDC.
Tackling wider policy, regulatory or other barriers that inhibit investment and constrain low carbon development.
Developing innovative financing mechanism with the potential to attract public and private investment and ultimately become self-sustaining in the long term. - 2
