NDC Partnership

The NDC Partnership brings together more than 200 members, including more than 130 countries, developed and developing , and more than 100 institutions to create and deliver on ambitious climate action that helps achieve the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Launched in 2016 at COP22 in Marrakesh, the NDC Partnership was founded on the idea that technical assistance, expertise, and financing for climate action were not being deployed in an effective or coordinated way to maximize efforts towards achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement and the SDGs, and that greater support was urgently needed. In response, the NDC Partnership was established to facilitate collaboration between country governments, international institutions, non-state actors, and other partners to provide timely support for accelerated climate action.

The Partnership is now looking ahead to build on our early success at driving more ambitious action on climate change and sustainable development. Designed to coincide with the five-year Paris Agreement cycle, the NDC Partnership will continue to support countries through the implementation of their newly revised NDCs submitted in 2020-2021, through the Global Stocktake of 2023, and into the new cycle of NDC revision and enhancement that culminates in 2025. The Partnership aims to remain a major driver for successful implementation of both the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
