The NDC Insights Series, a flagship knowledge product of UNDP's Climate Promise 2025(link is external) initiative, provides the latest updates and emerging trends on the preparation of new Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) due for submission to the UNFCCC in 2025. Tasked by the United Nations Secretary-General(link is external), UNDP is leading a coordinated UN system wide effort to support developing countries in their preparation of these new NDCs. This Insight Series, released monthly by UNDP, will share timely analysis, critical insights and explore the latest thematic trends we are seeing in the 2025 submission cycle.
