Submission: UAE-Belem Work Programme on Indicators

COP28 adopted the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA) framework, called the UAE Framework for Global Climate Resilience. As part of the UAE framework, a two-year UAE-Belém Work Programme (paragraph 39 of Decision CMA.5) on indicators has been established to develop indicators and methodologies for measuring the targets identified in paragraphs 9 and 10 of  Decision 2/CMA.5. 

Paragraph 41 of Decision 2/CMA.5 invites Parties and observers to submit views on the matters and modalities of the work programme, including organisation of work, timelines, inputs, outputs, and the involvement of stakeholders.  

Climate Action Network (CAN) welcomes the opportunity to engage in this submission, outlining views on the modalities of the two-year UAE-Belém Work Programme (WP) and a brief/recommendation on critical principles/criteria/issues to consider for developing indicators for the GGA.
