![Page 5: The GEF/UNDP/UNEP National Communications Support Programme United Nations Development Programme UNFCCC Workshop on the Preparation of National Communications](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56649e4b5503460f94b3f6aa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Proposed Approach to Technical Assistance
• Approach– Proactive– Direct response (country-driven)
• Provide flexible “toolbox”• Promote “learning by doing” and knowledge sharing,
not information dissemination• No one size fits all, but economies of scale exist• Translation, where feasible and financially possible

Objective 1: Facilitate Implementation of CCEAs
• Identify emerging issues in preparation of NCs• Identify good practices during project
implementation• Provide technical feedback on NCs• Provide strategic policy guidance on links
between NCs and national development agendas• Targeted training
NCSP will consult with every project co-ordinator at least 3 times per year

Objective 2: Prepare and disseminate technical
materials, including methods and tools
• Regional workshops to disseminate methods, best practices (adaptation, inventories?)
• Prepare technical and policy-relevant materials related to emerging issues
• Prepare web-based training materials
Gaps in methods and tools identified through monitoring and direct feedback from countries
