I. Output 1. NDC implementation plan for the energy, forests, water, and agriculture sectors: Bolivia, through the Plurinational Authority of Mother Earth (APMT by its initials in Spanish), is prioritizing efforts to achieve the 32 NDC targets in four sectors: energy, water, forests, and agriculture. This NDC implementation plan is the strategic and operational instrument allowing government institutions to integrate climate commitments and goals with prioritized actions in each sector and facilitate their fulfillment. Additionally, the Plan will allow the identification and analysis of financial, technical, and regulatory gaps in actions established in the NDC, and should take into consideration any relevant updates throughout the NDC 3.0 process. It will establish a detailed critical path for implementing climate actions and measure and monitor progress in achieving the NDC target.
Product No.1 • One technical analysis of the existing regulations, governance structures (incl. stakeholder mapping), related plans and programs, available financial instruments, as well as the progress in the implementation of the NDC targets, especially for the energy sector in Bolivia while ensuring alignment with the NDC 3.0 update process. The analysis should include:
Product No.2 • One analysis of the main institutional, technical, technological, and financing gaps, barriers, needs and priorities that may restrain the achievement of the energy sector NDC targets or hinder their effective implementation. This analysis shall be based on stakeholder consultations with both private and public actors and a desktop review of either government documents or peer-reviewed literature from academia or the development cooperation sector.
Product No.3 • A workshop report of a stakeholder validation process for 100 participants from the energy sector, following the participatory methodology developed by the Senior Project Manager to review and validate the barriers, gaps, and needs analysis conducted in the framework of product 2.
Product No.4 • One final version of the gaps, barriers, needs and priorities analysis that integrates the feedback and information collected during the validation workshop corresponding to Product 3. The final version must be approved by the APMT.
Product No.5 • One technical document that includes a description of the lines of action required for implementing the existing energy sector NDC targets.
Product No.6 • One technical report detailing the progress in developing a financing strategy for implementing the energy sector NDC targets.
Product No.7 • One energy sector NDC implementation plan that includes the activities and sub-activities needed, the institutions responsible, the level of priority, the list of stakeholders that should be involved, and the resources required to achieve them.
