Dear colleagues, I'm coordinating lead author along with Oscar Widerberg for the upcoming 2018 UNEP Emissions Gap Report, which will include a chapter on* Bridging the Gap: Non-state and Subnational Action (NSA)*. This chapter will build on new studies and publications that assess NSA contributions to climate change mitigation and adaptation, and will be released in time to feed into the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco on 12-14 September 2018.
The chapter will address questions including: · *What is the potential contribution of NSA to enhancing the ambition of NDCs and bridging the 2030 emissions gap?* · *What is known about the potential contribution by region, type of actions, type of actors, etc.?* · *Can NSA be scaled up and if so, how?* · *What are the key methodological challenges for assessing the potential contribution of NSA and how they can they be addressed?* · *Are NSAs delivering on their potential contribution to bridge the 2030 emissions gap?* We are eager for your help in identifying research that could be included in this chapter. The chapter can include and cite both grey and academic literature, so long as it will be available by the time of publication, or has been accepted for publication. Please send any published or pending work to Amy Weinfurter ([email protected]) by May 18. Or, if you will be attending the UNFCCC SB48 meeting in Bonn, Germany Oscar Widerberg (cc-ed here) will be available May 7-8 to meet.
