Process for Developing NDC 

The enhanced NDC was informed by engagements with national and international experts, as well as stakeholders from government, business and industry associations, environmental NGOs and youth groups, academic institutions, and donor organizations. Of the 49 international and national experts tasked to conduct analytical and technical work, 25 were women. In addition, 403 individual women also participated in the discussions of the data and validation of the document. Through robust consultations between stakeholders, potential mitigation policies and measures (PAMs) were identified and prioritized, assumptions used for modeling these PAMs were validated and directions for future mitigation scenarios were jointly developed.

Description of Monitoring and/or Implementation Mechanism 

The NDC mitigation targets will be realized through sixty-three Policies and Measures (PAMs) covering the sectors of energy, agriculture, LULUCF, waste and other enablers of mitigation actions. The social and economic aspects of these PAMs have also been considered.

Summary of Gender Reference 

Gender is considered among the social aspects of the PAMs. Several PAMs were analyzed using a gender lens, and analysis found that a gender-disaggregated approach would greatly improve their implementation. In an effort to make the enhanced NDC gender-responsive, several PAMs were redesigned and strengthened by the inclusion of gender indicators. The cited example involved the redesign of a subsidy model for efficient heating technology, where the previous "first come first served" approach was replaced by a more gender-informed approach. The integration of gender-informed indicators into PAMs is reiterated throughout the document. The enhanced NDC also cites the ongoing UNDP Climate Promise project, which aims to support its eventual implementation. In this regard, follow up activities include establishing engagements with the “UNFCCC Gender Focal Points, Gender Machinery and Parliamentarian Commission on Equal Opportunities to promote leadership roles for women in climate action.”
