3. How do we get there by following a climate-just path?

8. Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs)
Each Party of the Paris agreement is required to submit a Nationally Determined
Contribution (NDC). A NDC is climate action plan to reduce emissions and and
adapt to climate impacts that is updated every five years.
[YOUR MUNICIPALITY’S or REGION’s CLIMATE GOALS]
[YOUR MUNICIPALITY’S STATUS ON YOUR CLIMATE ACTION PLAN]
If your community does not have a status update on your climate action, replace
with programs and initiatives implemented/will be implemented.

9. Roundtable Discussions
• Each roundtable discussion lasts 30 minutes. A total of three roundtables will take
place, each aimed at answering one of the local stocktake questions.
• A facilitator will guide each roundtable and a recorder will take notes
• Seek to ensure a representative of each community or stakeholder group is
represented at each table
• Following each 30-minute round table discussion should be a presentation from a
community group representative and 10 minute break to review the responses of
each round table discussion

Where is our community locally on climate action and in
support of our country’s Paris Agreement plan?

11. Where are we? Guiding Questions
1. Has your national government submitted a second Nationally Determined
Contribution (NDC)? Are the goals and actions explained in the NDC
adequate for delivering the Paris Agreement goal of no more than 1.5-degree
C of warming?
2. Are sustainable urbanization or references to local communities adequately
included in the current NDC?
3. What is the climate commitment of your city or region for 2030 and 2050?
Are they on track for delivery?

12. 4. How can your local and regional government help your national government
seize the climate opportunity and meet its NDC? Which agencies or ministries

5. What long standing issues of justice are currently most affecting your
community?
6. How do you currently address climate justice in your city/region?
