Climate action in other projectAmount: US $ 4.9 Million

In addition, thanks to COP25, funds were obtained to promote climate action in various areas.

Gender
  • Technical workshop on gender: On November 28 and 30, 2019, the technical workshop was held, which was especially aimed at gender negotiators of the Parties and observers, in order to complement discussions prior to COP25, specifically in relation to the revision of the Work Program Lima on Gender (LWPG) and the Gender Action Plan (GAP).
  • Launch of a formal network of women negotiators in the UNFCCC process: Launch of an official network of women negotiators who held leadership positions in the Framework Convention process, focusing on creating opportunities among peers. The network is expected to provide regular opportunities to meet and exchange knowledge, tools and experiences in order to thrive in Framework Convention positions, such as those of contact group presidents, co-chairs and co-facilitators or constituted body chairs and vice-chairs.
  • Study to systematize data on gender and climate change: During the Chilean Presidency of COP25, a study will be carried out to systematize data on gender and climate change in Chile and thus determine sectoral indicators that allow identifying gender gaps and climate change. Work will also be done with UNDP in the elaboration of an institutional management manual to integrate the gender approach in the Ministry of the Environment.
  • Project to systematize data on gender and climate change: This Gender and Climate Change project contemplates:
    • A study to collect data on gender and climate change. The first stage will allow to systematize and model the presence of data where it is possible to observe the affectation of the population from the gender point of view, facing the effects of climate change. Based on the information generated in the data collection, disaggregated by sex and territorially, it will be made publicly available through an Atlas that makes visible the distribution of inequalities in the population from the point of view of vulnerabilities to climate change. From this, the second stage will define a list of sectoral gender indicators that allow identifying the gaps.
    • Make visible the importance of including the gender perspective in climate change policies. Based on the results of the first product, a dissemination seminar will be held. In addition, there will be a high-level event on gender and climate change within the framework of COP26. In sum, the “First Regional Meeting on Gender and Climate Change” will be held with the participation of gender focal points representing Latin America and the Caribbean, representatives of the Gender and Climate Change Table, civil society and expert panelists on the subject.
    • Strengthening capacities to integrate gender and climate change policies. A gender and climate change training program and a management manual will be developed to integrate the gender approach into the MMA's work. In addition, trainings will be held for MMA teams, the Interministerial Technical Team on Climate Change (ETICC) in Santiago and in regions.

Marine Areas
  • A study will be carried out with an unprecedented methodology to determine the contribution of Marine Protected Areas to the adaptation and mitigation of Climate Change. An Educational and Cultural Communicational Plan will also be developed in the AMCPMU Rapa Nui with the aim of highlighting the Rapa Nui MPAs and the Sea Steering Council, spreading at local, national and international levels the importance of the natural and cultural heritage associated with the MPAs and their administration, deepening the awareness of the community and visitors about MPAs.
  • Collaboration with Latin America and the Caribbean: Chile assumed the COP25 Presidency on behalf of Latin America and the Caribbean. For this reason, the contribution of the European Union is key to the development of a regional agenda during Chile's presidency of COP25. Indeed, during 2020 Latin American meetings will be held on:
    • Transparency and Climate Change
    • Circular Economy and Climate Change
    • Gender and climate change
    • Regional Forum of Local Governments
    • Forum with indigenous peoples of LAC on adaptation, mitigation and good practices
