Our NDC support center
Nationally determined contributions (NDCs) are at the heart of the Paris Agreement and the achievement of long-term climate goals. They embody each country’s efforts to reduce national emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
We launched the NDC support center earlier in 2021, together with two partners: African Regional Energy Commission (AFREC) and CO2logic, a climate consultancy company. The initiative's goal is helping countries with their ambition to achieve their climate objectives.
The NDC Support Center includes the foundation of a new knowledge center to support countries in Africa in their future climate reporting, particularly in terms of energy. The knowledge center began as a pilot project focusing on Morocco, Uganda and Malawi, three countries with very different economies, geography and also climate impact. VITO also has extensive experience with NDC projects in Colombia.
