The NCSP was funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to provide country needs-driven technical and policy support for the preparation of Second, Initial or Third, as appropriate, National Communications (SNCs) from Parties not included in Annex I (NAI Parties) to the United National Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Launched in June 2006, the NCSP has provided assistance to NAI Parties through a variety of support activities: analyses on the priority needs for assistance, organisation of initiation workshops and thematic training workshops, guidance on the design, planning and implementation of technical studies, development of guidance documents, and technical backstopping.
The Adaptation Fund has been established by the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change to finance concrete adaptation projects and programmes in developing countries that are Parties to the Kyoto Protocol. The Fund will be financed with 2% of the Certified Emission Reduction (CERs) issued for projects of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and with funds from other sources.
