In the realm of combating climate change, innovative solutions are paramount. For the past decade, the UN’s Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) has been at the forefront of driving these innovations forward. Established under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the CTCN has tirelessly worked to facilitate the transfer of environmentally sound technologies to developing countries.
The CO2 emissions from the transport sector account for about 20% of the total human-induced greenhouse emissions worldwide. The sector spans transport systems for commercial use and leisure, and vehicles used on land, air, inland waterways and seas. With a view to providing sustainable transport and mitigate climate change impacts, the CTCN brings together relevant stakeholders to provide technical assistance to countries through a combination of well-established and innovative climate technology solutions. Below you will find related publications, partners, CTCN technical assistance, technologies and other information for exploring this topic further.
