Subject: WRI Guide: Decoding INDCs
The attached guide from the World Resources Institute, Decoding INDCs, offers a short framework to aide understanding of key elements of the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) that countries are putting forward in the lead-up to the Paris negotiations. Organized around six key questions to ask about each country's INDC, this resource provides guidance for understanding the strengths and weaknesses of proposed country contributions.
You may also be interested in additional WRI resources, tools and research to support decision-makers, media and other stakeholders in better understanding the INDCs and the 2015 climate agreement.
We hope that Decoding INDCs serves as a valuable resource in understanding INDCs as we approach the Paris negotiations this December.

Subject: Application period to the UEF-UNEP Course on Multilateral Environmental Agreements 2015 extended for self-paying participants
The course will be organized in co-operation with the Law School of the Fudan University and the UNEP-Tongji University Institute of Environment for Sustainable Development. Organized since 2004, the UEF-UNEP course on Multilateral Environmental agreements seeks to transfer past experience in the field of international environmental law-making and diplomacy to current and future negotiators of multilateral environmental agreements. The course also provides a forum to foster North-South cooperation and to take stock of developments related to MEA negotiations and implementation.
Course Programme
The 2015 course focuses on climate change.
Lectures will be given by experienced hands-on diplomats, government officials, international civil servants and members of the academia.

The course will cover a broad range of topics related to climate change and multilateral environmental agreements, from climate change mitigation and adaptation to climate finance and technology. A special emphasis will be given to the ongoing negotiations under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change for a new climate agreement.
The course will also cover general issues relating to international environmental law-making and diplomacy will be dealt with. Interactive teaching methods will be used, including a two-day climate negotiation simulation and other negotiating exercises.
A more detailed draft programme can be found on the course website www.uef.fi/unep

Subject: Reminder: ADMIRE submission deadline 20 August, 2015
Dear Climate-L Readers,
The ADMIRE (Adaptation and Mitigation Readiness) project, which aims to incentivize private sector engagement in climate change mitigation and adaptation, is still accepting submissions for the 3rd call.
Submission deadline is August 20th.
The ADMIRE project is looking for ideas that can be developed into finance-ready, nationally appropriate adaptation and mitigation actions. The project will provide technical assistance to proponents to develop these project ideas into fully-fledged Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) and actions to support the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process. Applications may be submitted by any legal entity - company, public institution, NGO or individual.
Please circulate in your networks. For more information on the ADMIRE project and how to apply, kindly visit our website www.admireproject.org
