National Climate Change Action Plan (2011 – 2028) Intermediate Outcomes Enhanced adaptive capacity of communities, resilience of natural ecosystems, and sustainability of built environment to climate change. Goal: To Build the adaptive capacities of women and men in their communities, increase the resilience of vulnerable sectors and natural ecosystems to climate change, and optimize mitigation opportunities towards a genderresponsive and rights-based sustainable development Successful transition towards climate-smart development. Ultimate Outcomes

RATIONALE NCCAP Strategic Priorities PRIORITIES OUTCOMES Food Security • Ensure availability, stability, accessibility, and affordability of safe and healthy food amidst climate change. Water Sufficiency • Comprehensive review and subsequent restructuring of the entire water sector governance. Assess the resilience of major water resources and infrastructures, manage supply and demand, manage water quality, and promote conservation. Ecological • and Environme • ntal Protection and rehabilitation of critical ecosystems Restoration of ecological services. •

RATIONALE NCCAP Strategic Priorities PRIORITIES OUTCOMES Human Security Climate-smart Industries and Services Reduce the risks of women and men to climate change and disasters. • • • Sustainable Energy • • • Creation of green and eco-jobs and sustainable consumption and production. Development of sustainable cities and municipalities. Promotion and expansion of energy efficiency and conservation Development of sustainable and renewable energy Environmentally sustainable transport. Climate-proofing and rehabilitation of energy systems infrastructures.

RATIONALE NCCAP Strategic Priorities PRIORITIES OUTCOMES • Enhance knowledge on the science of climate change Knowledg • e and Capacity Developm ent • Enhance capacity for climate change adaptation, mitigation and disaster risk reduction at the local and community level Establish gendered climate change knowledge management accessible to all sectors at the national and local levels.

NDC Updates

Philippines’ Accession to the Paris Agreement • President Duterte signed the Instrument of Accession for the Paris Agreement on 28 February 2017. • The Senate of the Philippines unanimously adopted a resolution concurring to the accession on 14 March 2017. The Instrument of Accession was accepted/approved by the UNFCCC on 23 March 2017 and it officially entered into force on 22 April 2017.

Pres. Duterte’s Concerns on the Philippines’ Accession to the Paris Agreement • Philippines should be allowed to industrialize and not be pressured to limit its carbon emissions (climate justice) • Developed countries should pay for climate change related damages in vulnerable countries (compensation, loss & damage)

Pillars of the NDC • Support at the highest level of government • Government-wide commitment for NDC implementation • Robust institutional arrangements Political Commitment • Mainstreaming NDC in national, sectoral and local planning and budgeting processes Scientific Evidence • Climate impact studies • Cost-benefit analysis of adaptation and mitigation options • Emissions projections and scenarios • M&E/MRV systems • Whole of nation approach • Relevance of A/M actions to pursuing socio-economic issues Stakeholder • Addressing barriers to NDC implementation (policy/institutional, financing, technical, Engagement etc)

NDC Roadmap Formulation Process Revisit Reconstruct Report Redefine • INDC assumptions and parameters • Mitigation options and adaptation priorities • Updated calculations, assumptions and methodologies • Enhanced adaptation priorities and updated mitigation options • Climate finance and other means of implementation • Sub-national activities • Private sector engagement • 1 st NDC • Updated NDCs every 5 years • Robust M&E/MRV system • Integration of NDC in national, local and sectoral development plans • Addressing barriers (institutional, policy, technical, financial, etc) • Institutional Arrangements to enhancing adaptation-mitigation linkage to development planning and implementation (Recabar, 2018)

List of NDC Activiti es since 2016

ALIGNMENT TO

M&E / MRV System

Way Forward for NDC • Formal establishment of a Technical Working Group for Nationally Determined Contributions • Confirm list of adaptation priorities and mitigation options with lead sectoral agencies • Conduct integrated analysis of adaptation and mitigation components – identify synergies/joint projects • Finalize the zero draft and submit the 1 st NDC • Develop implementation plans and monitoring systems – to track progress and build confidence that goals will be achieved • Integrate NDC monitoring in the NICCDIES (online platform)

Way Forward for NDC • Integrate Sub-national/Non-state action plans into NDC • Develop financing plans- to facilitate mobilization of climate finance support • Mitigation goals may be split into conditional/unconditional components - based on availability of funding/need for external support • Establish robust institutional structures and strengthen capacity -for NDC formulation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation
