Climate Reality PH conducts regional NDC consultations

Fostering stakeholder engagement in national emissions reduction and mitigation targets

- 

The Climate Reality Project Philippines, with support from the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), recently conducted a series of regional consultations on multi-stakeholder engagement in achieving the country's Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC).

Held consecutively in Quezon City, Bacolod City, and Davao City, the Reimagine NDC consultations gathered representatives from the local government, the private sector, and civil society to discuss their roles in advancing the nation's climate commitments.

"[In driving climate action], we need a whole-of-society approach. The NDC implementation should not be done by just one side, but we all should be working together toward the same goals, all the while accepting that we have differing roles to play in achieving them," highlighted Rolando O. Abad Jr., Science Research Specialist II from the DENR's Climate Change Service.

The Reimagine NDC consultations are part of the Climate Reality Philippines' climate diplomacy program, which fosters meaningful stakeholder engagement in contributing to the national emissions reduction and mitigation targets.
