Societies can respond to climate change by reducing GHG emissions and enhancing sinks and reservoirs. The capacity to do so depends on socio-economic and environmental circumstances and the availability of information and technology. To this end, a wide variety of policies and instruments are available to governments to create the incentives for mitigation action. Mitigation is essential to meet the UNFCCC's objective of stabilizing GHG concentrations in the atmosphere. (Source: UNFCCC)
Based on the above, the technical assistance will aim to develop an additional information module to be incorporated into the MKFFIS to bolster the existing system’s ability to forecast fires and thus inform the development of appropriate countermeasures.
Guinea faces significant structural challenges in its energy sector, marked by low electricity access, especially in rural areas, and a heavy reliance on imported fossil fuels. While recent hydroelectric investments have improved capacity, the national grid remains limited in coverage and vulnerable to external shocks. At the same time, rising energy demand driven by population growth, urbanization, and mining expansion highlights the urgent need for a more resilient and diversified energy mix.
The Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) will provide technical assistance to develop a comprehensive national decarbonization roadmap for Zimbabwe’s cement and concrete industry through Advanced Technology Upgradation and Enhanced Standards.
It is funded by the European Union through the Innovative Climate Solutions (ICS) Programme.
