Technical guidance and support to conduct a technology needs assessment and a technology action plan for Gabon

The objective of this assistance is to develop a TNA to identify and prioritize technology transfer and diffusion for climate change mitigation and adaptation in key sectors in Gabon. There are several sectors targeted for adaptation and mitigation in the country INDC and Country Programme which include forestry, energy (electricity and hydrocarbons), agriculture and infrastructure, as well as transport, water and waste management. Technology transfer in these sectors will certainly have impact toward reducing vulnerability of the population hence increased resilience to climate change, as well as steering the country towards a low carbon development path. As an example, most of the country’s GHG emissions are generated by land-use sector. In this context, this requested assistance will allow for the INDC implementation while also identifying, by means of the development of local content, the low-carbon and adaptation technologies needed for the country’s sustainable growth.
