There are several criteria for an iniave to be included in the LPAA. It must: • Be cooperave, be inclusive, open and regionally balance. • Be ambious: short and long term quanfiable targets – transformave acons guided by a 2°C and resilient pathway. • Be science based: Address a concrete impact of climate change migaon or adaptaon issues to get us on a resilient and below 2°C pathway. • Have the capacity to deliver. Ability to directly deliver and implement commitments. • Showcase implementaon of exisng commitments (sufficient level of maturity in Paris) • Follow-up and report. Ready to report on implementaon.

LPAA – Lessons learned and way forward

• High-level leadership of the process is needed.

• A dedicated support team is essenal: to track, coordinate, trigger, engage, and support iniaves.

• Clearly established governance – it may take 1-3 years for iniaves to ramp- up and deliver. Useful to have had o ensure complementary perspecves and roles the 4 Partners (Peru, France, UNFCCC, UNSG). • General principles and minimum scruny are necessary to ensure robustness and credibility to the process.

Ø How to keep the dynamic aer Paris? Ø How could the technical examinaon process of the Workstream 2 harverst the energy of the LPAA to improve its work aer Paris?
