Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru will be concluding the development of their mitigation scenarios and the assessment of their socio economic impacts by end of 2015. Today, all in-country teams are informing the intended nationally determined contribution (INDC) of their respective countries.
The generated evidence has been robust and credible (local data), has been validated by a relevant set of stakeholders including representatives from academia, public and private sector and civil society, and embedded in the national context. The preparation and approval of each of the INDCs is an important national process. However we acknowledge there is also a critical process to enable the implementation of the contribution and its relationship with national regulation.
Knowledge to Action Lab in Bogotá, from 25th-27th August 2015. The lab will give team members an opportunity to exchange thought on a number of topics around the ‘move to implementation’. It is hoped that the lab will enable team members to return to their countries vested to provide recommendations on the design of implementation processes.
Presentations and outputs will be made available on the MAPS website.
The Lab will focus in exploring the following questions:– How do we move to implementation?
– What are the lessons learned of industrialised countries in moving into implementation?
– What do we do to enable the uptake of results into national and sub-national processes and ultimately into action?
– What actions need to be taken now to increase the likelihood of implementation of MAPS countries’ policy recommendations?
– What have we learnt about the gap between policy planning and implementation?
– What additional evidence, information and activities are needed to achieve implementation?
