International markets (and other forms of cooperation) are desirable
Governments and market participants need information
about the underlying carbon assets
Lack of comparability as a result of the bottom-up development of
mitigation actions

GOLD STANDARD & UNEP-DTUPARTNERSHIP
A
11
• Design and pilot a step-by-step process for independent MAAP assessments to enhance
the transparency and comparability of mitigation outcomes
• Supports Gold Standard and UNEP-DTU Partnership’s capacity building/financing
activities
• The process aims to initially assess mitigation actions based on publicly available
information, as a basis for engaging with counterparts responsible for the actions’
design, implementation and/or financing
12
Initial Screening
• Long list of 50 climate actions
• Actions shortlisted based on selection criteria
Independent Assessment
• Design documents
• Publicly available information
Counterpart Engagement
• Sharing results with counterparts
• In-country assessments
Revised Assessment
• Incorporating new information
• Discuss and refine

making responsibilities are not clearly defined.

applicable)

Post visit: A registry is envisioned (Plan de Acción Estrategia Nacional de Cambio Climático)
Registry and double counting 25 5 No national registry available - SINAMECC in design process though.

30 15 Pre visit: No provisions on climate financing tracking.
Post Visit: Financial supervision – internally, there are very basic project registries and registries of
financial flows, also from international projects controlled by SEPSA but the ongoing project EC-LEDS
shall improve this as an effort to clearly monitor the impact of all associated financing for the NAMA.

• Analyze the mitigation impact of the State of Jalisco’s previous Climate Change Action
Plan (PEAC), a cross-sector, state-level plan
• Carbon Trust, at the request of the Government of Jalisco, applied all four modules of
the MAAP to identify areas for improvement and areas of strength to inform the design
of the current PEAC
• Re-apply the MAAP to the draft PEAC design to track progress, finalize the plan
design, and mobilize climate finance for more targeted capacity building

• There are currently 259 NAMAs in 69 countries unevenly spread across regions and
sectors. Only 8.5% of the NAMAs are under implementation

• The Partnership for Market Readiness (PMR) is currently supporting the National
Housing Commission’s (CONAVI) implementation of the Sustainable Housing NAMA,
which seeks to improve residential buildings’ overall energy performance
• Apply the MAAP to identify capacity building priorities under PMR
22
• As part of the MAAP Ambassador Program in Latin America, CONAVI invited Ambassadors to
assess Mexico’s Sustainable Housing NAMA
• 11 Ambassadors applied the MAAP Online tool to assess the NAMA using the documents
provided by CONAVI
• Evaluate Program Design (Module 1) and Management Entity (Module 2)
• Use the average scores to inform PMR’s capacity building support

Way Forward
• Use as assessment standard/criteria for
disbursing climate finance
Project financer/banks
