  1. Knowledge needs on POLIMP project Vlasis Oikonomou, Joint Implementation Network 18/11/2013, COP19 Side Event

  2. The Challenge… • Much information is already available for climate policy stakeholders but the way the information is presented is often: • difficult to access • not in the right format • of limited use for stakeholders.

  3. The Project… Acronym: POLIMP Title: Mobilizing and Transferring Knowledge on Post-2012 Climate Policy Implications EC funding: 1.0 Million€ Start date: 1st of May 2013 Duration: 3 years

  5. We aim at... ….Identifying • where knowledge gaps exist • what future international climate policy directions may look like and… • what these imply for policy and decision makers internationally and within the EU.

  6. Identify knowledge gaps on the implications for EU stakeholders of possible directions of climatepolicy making. Project Objectives (1/2) • Collect and synthesize knowledge of possible climate policy directions and their implications. • Support policy and decision makers in taking well informeddecisions, thereby reducing uncertainties and mitigating the risk.

  7. Project Objectives (2/2) • Facilitate communicationamong various research components and knowledge dissemination amongvariousstakeholdergroups. • Track down links between the outcome of the UNFCCC negotiations and EU-level and domestic policy actions in selected country-parties.

  8. Work Modules Climate policy projects • Module 1: Livingclimate policy database WP2 Stakeholders WP3 • Module 3: Climate policy knowledge platform WP7 WP5 • Module 2: Climate policy knowledge procession Climate policy community of practice WP4 WP6 Climate policy negotiations

  9. Dissemination Means

  10. Results (1/2) • Creation of a thematic knowledge base on climate change mitigation, adaptation, technology transfer, finance and market mechanisms. • The knowledge collection and processing network will enhance the insights of policy and decision makers on possible courses of international climate policy making.

  11. Results (2/2) • Reduction of the uncertainty of policy and decision makers and better understanding of the consequences of different policies and climate regimes. • Trust among policy and decision makers so that they can strengthen their efforts for implementation of the ‘Climate and Energy package (20/20/20 targets)’.

  12. Knowledge needs… • Government officials: • Refinement of arguments, • Deepening the understanding of policy areas, • Preparation for government statements • ‘Useful information is by politicians not being recognized as relevant, since the debate is often not about the knowledge. It is a about political gains in the short term’
