This report has been prepared as part of a joint OECD-UNDP project, with the financial support of the German Federal Foreign Office, to support countries in the 2025 cycle of revising their NDCs by making the case for the economic and development benefits of enhanced NDCs and how they can be delivered.
This joint report on Investing in Climate for Growth and Development – The Case for Enhanced NDCs provides evidence that maintaining and strengthening climate action is not just an environmental imperative; it is a strategic investment in economic stability and long-term prosperity, unlocking a range of development benefits. It also sets out the steps needed to implement NDCs through integrated approaches that bring climate and development strategies together and create the conditions to mobilize investment for climate action.
The resource provides further guidance on Stage 1: Investment Planning and Mobilization Capacity of the Climate Investment Planning and Mobilization Framework.
