  2. WS 1 • Applicable to all – contributions from Parties in accordance with CBDR • 2015 Agreement : science and equity; broad participation; flexible and sensitive to national circumstances; robust and environmentally effective; strengthen international rules-based system; must address all elements of para 5 1.CP.17 • However, less clarity on finance, adaptation, capacity building, tech transfer – adaptation and link to mitigation will require more focus

  3. WS 1 • Mitigation: • the need for internationally agreed rules to enable ex ante clarity and comparability of contributions and to provide for a robust process • framework or mechanism to ensure that Parties’ contributions are collectively and individually ambitious as well as equitable and fair • greater clarity is needed in some these areas, including on timing and anchoring of pledges, operationalizing equity, and arrangements for ex-ante and ex-post review.

  4. WS 1 • Mitigation: • Linkage with adaptation – technical paper on adaptation for Warsaw • Finance, Technology, Capacity Building etc. • Important for 2015 Agreement – more detailed proposals and clarity on how these issues may feature in the Agreement • Transparency and mutual trust – comparability and accountability of Parties’ actions – more advanced understanding of MRV of mitigation cf. support

  5. WS 1 • More clarity required on: • the relationship to the 2013-2015 review • the role of market and non-market mechanisms • the role of forests/land use • Linkages: • 2015 agreement needs to take into account and build on existing arrangements, institutions and mechanisms • WS2

  8. WS 1 and Warsaw • Clarification on “fit” of linkages issues • Finance, technology, capacity building etc. • Political engagement for mitigation “numbers”

  9. Warsaw – Timelines and Milestones • 2015 and working backwards: • Text by May 2015 – legal requirement • draft of text by COP 20 at a minimum • Framing elements by Warsaw • Establish work programme in Warsaw? • Impact on negotiations • COP decision? • Modality?
