Developing Financeable NAMAs: A Practitioner’s Guide
The document is designed to be a simple, easy-to-follow guide for developing stand-alone NAMAs or NAMAs nestled within a low-carbon planning process, and for advancing potential NAMAs to the next stage of development. Within this context, this document contributes to the growing body of NAMAs learning by providing both:
1. A conceptual framework for implementing low-carbon, climate-resilient development, under which NAMAs can be prioritized.
2. A step-by-step methodology for screening NAMA opportunities, both within and outside a low-carbon development planning process, with the Quick Screen designed specifically for developing NAMA concepts and the Deep Screen for developing NAMA proposals.
The document is organized as follows:
Section 1 introduces the topic of NAMAs.
Section 2 provides a conceptualization of NAMAs within low-carbon, climate-resilient development planning.
Section 3 identifies the frameworks for developing NAMA concepts and NAMA proposals.
Section 4 provides a detailed Quick Screen approach for NAMA concepts.
Section 5 provides a detailed Deep Screen approach for NAMA proposals.
