A Stocktake: From Technology Needs to Implementation

At the Africa Climate Week and Africa Climate Summit 2023, both held next week at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre in Nairobi, UNEP and the Global Adaptation Network will be (co-) organizing the following climate adaptation event. Registration is now closed, but for those attending, come and join us!

When: Wednesday 6th September at 3:30pm-4:30pm (East Africa Time)

Room: Atlas Mountain

Developing countries’ efforts to conduct effective Technology Needs Assessments (TNAs) and implement their prioritized technologies have become instrumental to implementing technology solutions to mitigate and adapt to a changing climate. Since 2009, the UNEP-GEF Global TNA project has supported more than 30 countries in the African region to assess countries’ technology needs in relation to both climate change adaptation and mitigation. During this event, country representatives will discuss the TNAs and their ability to generate information about the potential, ability, and scale of climate change technologies, with a special focus on energy systems transformations.
