“The LDC Expert Group (LEG) prepared Technical Guidelines for the NAP process in 2012, based on the COP’s initial guidelines. The review of the guidelines will now take place at COP 20 in Peru, in 2014, based
on comments submitted by Parties to the Subsidiary Body for Implementation, on their experience with the application of the guidelines. This brief considers the differences and similarities between NAPAs and NAPs; activities that can be funded under the NAP process based on the existing priorities and circumstances of LDCs, including “no regret” measures and the integration of NAPs into national development plans and strategies; NAP financial and technical support; and NAP monitoring and evaluation.”
