National Advisor for NDC-Support to Ministry of Environment for Policy Dialogue and Knowledge Management on low Emission Development Strategies Project

 The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a federally owned international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. GIZ has worked in Rwanda for over 30 years. The primary objectives between the Government of Rwanda and the Federal Republic of Germany are poverty reduction and promotion of sustainable development. To achieve these objectives, GIZ Rwanda is active in the sectors of Decentralization and Good Governance, Economic Development and Employment Promotion, Energy, and ICT (Information and Communications Technology).

Rwanda developed an ambitious Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) as a country driven climate action plan aimed at implementing the Paris Agreement. The plan covers a broad range of selected mitigation and adaptation interventions in various sectors including agriculture, forestry, water resources, land-use, disaster management, renewable energy, off-grid electrification, transport, industry, and waste. Rwanda’s NDC implementation plan is aligned with national priorities, including the national climate agenda that is consolidated in the Green Growth and Climate Resilience Strategy (GGCRS) that was the primary basis for the development of the NDC.

The Ministry of Environment (MoE) and MINECOFIN serve as focal points for sector coordination and monitoring of NDC implementation on behalf of the GoR to ensure the effective and efficient contribution of each involved sectors in actions that create impacts leading to the achievement of keeping a global temperature rise this century well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius

In this regard, the Environment and Natural Resource Sector Working Group (ENR SWG) established a structure that provides strategic orientation, technical support as well as resource mobilization to the environment and natural resources sector targets. The ENR sector is composed by seven ENR sub-sectors that are forests, meteorology, environment and climate change, land, mining, petroleum & gas and integrated water resources management and green fund that constitute key pillars of the SWG. Through the Sector Working Group, Government officials, private sector operators, civil society organizations and all donors identified for their involvement in the ENR sector and specific technical expertise, review and discuss the achievements, challenges and new opportunities related to programs in ENR sector and resources available and the NDC implementation is an integral part under this framework.

In this regard, the ENR SWG is chaired by the MoE represented by the Permanent Secretary and Co-Chaired by the Germany Embassy represented by the German Head of Cooperation and both have the responsibilities to ensure successful NDC implementation by providing strategic orientation and technical support as well as resource mobilization to the priorities in the NDC program.

Recognizing that NDC adaptation and mitigation actions and strategies will be implemented through various stakeholders’ interventions, the Ministry of Environment expressed the importance of having strong coordination of NDC stakeholders by avoiding overlaps and building synergies in various interventions and requested a national expert for NDC support to advise both Chair and Co-Chair on priorities of the sector and coordinate all NDC related programs and projects. The expert will be a senior expert with full understanding of the ENR sector interventions with specific alignment to the newly revised NDC.
