Scaling up is the next
challenge
There is a need for larger scale 'bankable' NAMAs. The start of GCF operations marks an important new opportunity for NAMA implementation finance.

It's up to governments to balance
speed, scale, and direction
The challenge lies with countries to increase speed and scale for NAMA development and use the momentum to realise their mitigation ambitions. We expect more emphasis on domestic NAMAs as countries seek recognition for their efforts to achieve their INDCs.

NAMA development continues to grow
steadily
The UNFCCC NAMA Registry has almost doubled the number of registered NAMAs from end of last year. The NAMA Database records close to 170 NAMAs.

NAMAs will contribute to realising
the ambition in INDCs
Over one-third of submitted INDCs contain reference to NAMAs. The link between the two is emerging strongly with the potential to bridge the gap between ambition and action.

NAMAs gain valuable experience and
show an effective approach
Using a bottom-up and country-driven approach NAMA development has built capacity for designing government-led mitigation actions.

1. Defining NAMAs
- Where INDCs indicate countries' ambitions, NAMAs can provide a flexible and versatile tool to deliver domestication
- Larger scale NAMAs with diverse co-benefits can increase domestic ownership and attractiveness to donors
2. Financing NAMAs
- The NAMA Facility has helped to give direction and a more common understanding of what makes a bankable funding proposal
- INDCs can bring political backing needed for domestic NAMA finance
3. Monitoring NAMAs
- Good practice on MRV systems is emerging despite the limited experience on NAMA implementation
- MRV for NAMAs can build on existing national systems; though, ensuring alignment of donors' requirements would help to develop more systematic MRV systems in the future
- Tools to facilitate the link between NAMAs and SDGs are being developed
4. Operationalising NAMAs
- Over a third of the submitted INDCs from non-Annex I countries propose to use NAMAs for their post-2020 actions
- In the coming years, we expect to see more NAMAs with sources of funding and more implementation
- First examples of NAMAs attracting private sector investments are emerging
