The Least Developed Countries Expert Group (LEG)
The LEG was established by decision 29/CP.7 to provide technical support and advice to LDC Parties as
they prepare and implement their NAPA. This is done through training workshops, development of
guides, tools, technical papers, publications and database, and by reviewing draft NAPAs upon
request or answering any questions that NAPA teams may have. The LEG also provides such support to
LDC Parties that are revising their NAPAs. The LEG can be reached by sending an e-mail to
leghelp@unfccc.int.
More information on the work of the LEG is available here
The Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF) and the GEF
agencies
The LDCF was established, in accordance with decision 7/CP.7, to support a work programme to assist
LDC Parties to carry out, inter alia, the preparation and implementation of NAPAs. Project proposals
for the preparation and implementation of NAPAs are submitted to the GEF/LDCF through a GEF agency
chosen by the country. In turn, the GEF agency provides technical support to the country on the
preparation of the project documents and other aspects of executing the projects.
More information on the LDCF is available here
Other support
In addition, support is available from other organizations and centres, including regional centres
and NGOs which have programmes designed to support LDCs. In recognition of this, the LEG has
been increasingly collaborating with relevant organizations and centres to further its work.
More information on other sources of support for the preparation and/or implementation of NAPAs is
available here (coming soon)
