LEDS GP Proposed Priorities for 2016 Strengthen Capacity for LEDS and INDC Implementation: Enable peer learning, share good practices, and offer training and technical assistance to countries to strengthen policies and measures and use of effective instruments for mobilizing private and public investment to support LEDS and INDC implementation. Build Enduring Momentum for LEDS and INDCs: Share approaches and facilitate access to knowledge on analysis and communication of LEDS development benefits and effective LEDS planning with broad stakeholder engagement. Facilitate Access to Assistance: Enable access to resources and support from LEDS assistance programs and connect governments with experts for responsive support to government assistance.
