What support is available to LDCs for preparing their NAPAs ?
Project proposals for the preparation of NAPAs are submitted to the GEF through a GEF agency chosen by the country. In turn the GEF agency provides technical support to the country on the preparation of the project documents and other aspects of executing the project in preparing the NAPA. In addition, the LEG provides technical support and advice to LDC Parties as they prepare their NAPA. This is done through training workshops, guidance papers and by reviewing draft NAPAs upon request or answering any questions that NAPA teams may have. The LEG can be reached by sending an e-mail to leghelp@unfccc.int, or by contacting the UNFCCC Secretariat at LDCunit@unfccc.int. Additional support is available from other agencies including the United Nations Institute for Training and Research through its Climate Change Programme, or through regional centres and NGOs which have programmes designed to support LDCs.
