Networking & Collaboration

Technologies are vital to building climate-resilient, low-carbon societies. Many essential technologies already exist — the challenge is to get them deployed where they are needed, and to build the enabling environments to support technology innovation, adaptation and scale-up. An overwhelming number of developing countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement indicate a requirement for technology support and capacity building in order to achieve their commitments. To meet this need, the CTCN serves as a demand-driven and trusted partner, matching the needs of developing countries for climate change-related equipment, methods, capacity development, and policy advice with the world-class expertise of its Network and our collaborators. 

Gender and Climate Technology Expert Roster

At COP28 in Dubai, the Technology Mechanism introduced the Climate Technology and Gender Expert Roster, a global roster of female experts on climate technologies and female and male gender experts who can be called upon for various events, workshops, and activities, and for consultation during technical assistance implementation.
