Page 20 - Low Carbon Development in China and India
P. 20
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The collaborative study on low carbon development for China
and India is directed towards developing specific strategies for
low carbon development in crosscutting areas, such as financing,
technology and innovation policy, and sub-national initiatives. The
project focuses on understanding peer-country experiences, promoting
knowledge exchange, and dissemination to shape domestic policies
and implementation. By engaging with policymakers, the project seeks
to support policy incubation and development at both the national and
sub-national levels. Targeted policymaker engagement and advocacy
supports design and adoption of new policies and programmes, based
on findings from the study. The intended outcome of the collaborative
project on low carbon development for China and India is supporting
policy development by facilitating South-South cooperation, creating
relevant knowledge, and building capacities through exchange of
experiences and ideas.
The project is collaborative in nature. The Indian research institute
is The Energy and Resources Institute, New Delhi. From China, the
National Centre for Climate Change Strategy and International
Cooperation is the lead research institute with Central University
of Finance and Economics, and Zhejiang University as partner
institutes. The National Development and Reform Commission
steered the activities of the China component of the project. On
the India component, activities of the project were guided by a
steering committee.
This publication examines three areas important for
operationalizing low carbon development; these include technology
and innovation policy, financing, and informing sub-national actions.
