This means no more than 1,456 Gt CO2, or around an annual average of 14.5 Gt CO2, of carbon dioxide emissions should be released into the atmosphere in the 21st century. 07/09/20153Eng.

Necessity to realization global cooperation especially North- South and South-South It is an important element in all multi-lateral environmental agreements (MEAs) Technology transfer includes several phases of technology development, deployment, dissemination, adoption and “domestication” TT is one of the pillars of the Bali Action Plan endorsed by UNFCCC COP in 2007 and is now one of the negotiations tracks for post Kyoto 07/09/2015Eng.

7 Click to edit Master title style Click to edit Master text styles – Second level Third level – Fourth level » Fifth level 07/09/20157 Technology Transfer IPCC defined Technology Transfer as: “….. a broad set of processes covering the flows of know-how, experience and equipment for mitigating and adapting to climate change amongst different stakeholders such as governments, private sector entities, financial institutions, NGOs and research/education institutions.” It encompasses diffusion of technologies and technology cooperation across and within countries. It covers technology transfer processes between all countries (developed, developing, economies in transition) It comprises the process of learning to understand, utilize and replicate the technology, including the capacity to choose & adapt to local conditions & integrate it with indigenous technologies. -IPCCC Special Report of Working Group III, “Methodological and Technical Issues in Technology Transfer” 07/09/20157Eng.

Hussain Makki-NOGA Article 4.5 of the Convention addresses technology transfer, stating that “developed countries…shall take all practicable steps to promote, facilitate and finance, as appropriate, the transfer of, or access to, environmentally-sound technologies and know- how to other Parties, particularly developing country Parties, to enable them to implement the provisions of the Convention.” Article 10c of the Kyoto Protocol contains a similar commitment.

9 Click to edit Master title style Click to edit Master text styles – Second level Third level – Fourth level » Fifth level 07/09/20159 In 2001, Parties to the UNFCCC adopted a framework for actions to enhance the implementation of Article 4.5. The framework contains five key activities relating to: – Technology Needs Assessments (TNA), – Technology Information, – Enabling Environments, – Capacity Building and – Mechanisms for Technology Transfer. 07/09/20159Eng.

Since then, workshops have been held on technology information (Beijing, China, April 2002), needs assessments (Seoul, Republic of Korea, April 2002), enabling environments (Ghent, Belgium, April 2003), innovative financing (Montreal, Canada, September 2004 and Bonn, Germany, October 2005), and adaptation technologies (Tobago, June 2005),.......(Bonn, June 2010) 07/09/201511Eng.
