1. Understanding the situation

In order to plan and implement a comprehensive and appropriate approach to mobilizing finance for LEDS and NDCs, a good starting point is to understand the current situation. This will help identify and prioritize the required activities and ensure they are based on a robust and up to date evidence base. Relevant activities to develop such an understanding include looking at current flows of finance, assessing the amount of finance needed to implement the NDC or LEDS, working out what capacities are needed and to what degree they already exist, and identifying barriers hindering investment that need to be overcome. This section presents a selection of resources to help with these activities.

This reference manual and its accompanying quick start guide were produced to support developing countries in implementing their NDCs. It is aimed at national and subnational policymakers, development partners, and practitioners. The reference manual sets out specific activities that countries can undertake in five key areas of NDC implementation, of which one is finance. The finance chapter outlines 10 key activities as a comprehensive basis for an approach to mobilize finance for NDC implementation, and includes several relevant case studies. The activities covered are well aligned with the different sections of this resource guide. The Quick start guide and reference manual is also available as an online tool, enabling users to link finance to mitigation; adaptation; governance; and measuring, reporting, and verification.
