DFID input to Long term goal
Role: support development/realisation of UK position
Strategy: support analysis & dialogue on development
perspective
• draw in outside expertise (MDB, academics)
• capacity building
• communicate / build alliances
Inputs: support analysis of costs/benefits
• narrow estimate (CBA; GLOCAF, adaptation costs)
• cost effective trajectories; intermediary targets
• stimulate research
DFID input to Allocation
Role: support development/realisation of UK position
Strategy: support analysis & dialogue on development
perspective
• draw in outside expertise (MDB, academics)
• capacity building
• communicate / build alliances
Inputs: explore economic implications of different allocation
metrics to encourage an equitable outcome.
• implications of different allocation approaches (GLOCAF)
• assessment of implications of alternative (non-cap‘n’trade)
approaches
• identify trade offs (displacing mit to ada costs).

DFID input to Mex
Role: support development realisation of UK/EU position
Strategy: support analysis & dialogue on development
perspective
• draw in outside expertise (MDB, academics)
• capacity building
• communicate / build alliances
Inputs: make economic case for CDM expansion and rules reform
•effectiveness, efficiency and transition for MICs (rules and inputs)
•access for LICs (rules and inputs)
•rationale for sector expansion (forestry)
•identify trade offs (supporting development relative to abatement)
Finance
Lack of finance for low
carbon development.
‘Adaptation’ finance
insufficient and effective.
Past
Role of MDBs?
Significant flows
of carbon finance
from developed
to developing
Multi-donor finance for low
countries
carbon and climate resilient
development.
Present
Carbon market reformed to
expand reach and impact.
Future
Additional finance
tops up aid to
support climate
resilient
development
Taxation?
Hypothecation?
Issue bonds?
0.7%?
Capacity building
Stage 2: Deepened
Stage 1: Basic
understanding: National
Implications and opportunities
of a deal
understanding: process and
broad implications
•Short term initiatives
•Medium/long term initiatives
•Aimed at filling immediate
capacity “gaps”
•Aimed at increasing depth/
breadth of understanding
•Linking current expertise
to recipients
•Primarily aimed at LICs
Full capacity to
engage and
shape climate
change
frameworks and
their delivery
mechanisms
•Building up
regional/national institutions
to act as “hubs”
• 1st phase MICs / 2nd Phase
LICs
Stage 3: Compliance and
Implementation understanding
•Long term initiative
•Aimed at assisting countries to respond: integration/
planning/ future commitment phases
•UN/Regional provider
