11 Observed challenges Short Timeframe for preparation of INDC Lack of Financial and technical capabilities (e.g. with regard to development of BAU scenario, identification of promising mitigation actions) Development of mitigation targets for the post-2020 period: A number of mitigation targets exist, but with different base years. Except for the National Green Growth Strategy all targets are only until Lack of inter-ministerial coordination Uncertainty due to the lack of formal guidance from UNFCCC on the format of INDC submission Page 11
