UNIDO Support for Industry under
the Climate Convention

Project
Issues
• Assessment of technology needs cannot
ignore associated needs for capacity /
‘enabling environment’ & should not be an
end in itself
• UNIDO programme aims to mobilize national
& (sub-) regional capacity & develop
mechanisms that support [industrial]
technology transfer (including pre-project, project and post
project launch issues)
• Previous efforts largely ignored industry and
its potential to assist in achieving CC/CDM
goals
EGM on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments, Seoul, April 2002
Phases
• 3 phases
– Phase I: National review of industry & past
CC/CDM activities—background studies
– Phase II: Detailed capacity & targeted
technology needs assessments—
preparatory assistance (to develop programme to
submit to donors / donor agencies)
– Phase III: Programme implementation—
learning-by-doing

– Capacity to undertake surveys and
observations for baseline elaboration
– Monitoring equipment
– Capacity to undertake baseline and
environmental additionality and sustainable
development assessments
– Capacity to prepare bankable proposals
EGM on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments, Seoul, April 2002
Programme outputs (III)

Results to date
• Started with 6 African experts that became
leaders of their own national teams
• Industry interests increasingly represented at
COP/MOPs
• Each country now has ‘core’ team--members
have different expertise
• Technology/sectoral, investment, finance, energy,
information, policy/legislation
• Each country has mobilized stakeholders in
each major sector of the economy
• Now ca. 200 individuals in present Africa
‘network’
EGM on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments, Seoul, April 2002
Results to date
• A preliminary portfolio of industrial
(CDM) projects & associated
experience
• A ‘learning-by-doing’ CB programme
• Increased awareness & capacity of
Phase I & II participants
EGM on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments, Seoul, April 2002
Replicability
• Started with 6 African countries then:
– 5 ASEAN countries in 2001
– 2 new African countries in 2001
– 12 new expressions of interest recently
EGM on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments, Seoul, April 2002
Approach taken
• Country-driven
– Bottom-up, multi-stakeholder, learning-bydoing process
– Foster public-private partnerships
– Mobilize private sector & local capacity
• ‘Integrated’ approach based upon longstanding UNIDO experience
– industrial development, technology,
investment promotion & capacity building
– Supports sustainable industrial
development
