NAMA Partnership Developing countries have agreed to prepare and implement nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMAs) as a part of their contribution to global mitigation efforts. While initiatives to assist developing countries to prepare and implement NAMAs are scattered, uncoordinated and in short supply; multilateral, bilateral and other organizations are in the process of supporting developing countries with different aspects of mitigation. In this context, the NAMA Partnership emerges as a group of multilateral organizations, bilateral cooperation agencies and think tanks that have come together to work on Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs). The international partnership on NAMAs will focus on information and knowledge sharing to deliver know-how in support of developing countries. Areas of Work The partnership aims to identify best practices and share knowledge to inform the preparation and implementation of NAMAs around three main areas. The three areas of work are: • NAMAs in the context of national development • Preparation and implementation of individual NAMAs in different sectors or technologies • Finance
