3rd INDC Work Group meeting and Agriculture & Waste sectorial Workshop

Clima East Policy Project is organizing a one-day workshop on the INDC aspects of waste and agriculture as part of the ongoing support on “Intended Nationally Determined Contributions” preparations on 22 January 2015 in Baku. This event is the last in the series of events focusing on various key sectors of the INDC. This event will be organised back-to-back (23 January) with the 3rd meeting of the inter-ministerial “INDC Working Group” which has been mandated by the Council of Ministers to prepare the INDC of Azerbaijan. The INDC WG meeting covers all sectors and their progress on the INDC draft preparation.

The events are part of the broader Southern Caucasus regional support in which the national, sectoral activities (Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia) will be supported by regional Clima East workshops/consultations scheduled for 2015. 

The purpose of the workshop is to improve knowledge on the topic of Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs), how this concept is understood, likely outcomes, as well as upfront Information on INDCs (type of expected information, discussion of the draft decision), cycle of commitments/contributions under 2015 Agreement and its implications for countries submitting INDCs.
