COP 30 Side Event | Aligning Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and NAPs: Coordinated climate governance across sectors, actors, and scales
Effective implementation of climate actions requires more than ambitious commitments and plans—it demands coordinated governance across sectors, actors, and levels.
This side event will explore how countries in the Global South are addressing institutional fragmentation by strengthening multilevel, multi-sectoral, and multi-actor coordination mechanisms to support NAPs and nationally determined contributions (NDCs). Through Brazilian COP Presidency’s agenda inputs, country experiences, policy insights, and moderated discussion, this session will
- examine approaches to enhance sectoral and vertical coordination;
- foster inclusive participation across actors—from national governments, civil society, to the private sector, academia and Indigenous Peoples; and
- align planning and budgeting frameworks.
Panelists will also highlight enabling conditions for effective coordination, including political leadership, institutional arrangements, and engagement of non-state actors, with a focus on how coordinated governance can support climate resilience, equity, and coherence between NDCs and NAP processes.
Hosted by Brazil, Maldives, Peru, and NAP Global Network.
