The COP had requested the LEG to elaborate the technical guidelines for the NAP process based on the initial guidelines for the formulation of NAPs and to arrange a review of these technical guidelines (decision 5/CP.17, paragraphs 15-16).
The LEG organized a review meeting from 29 to 31 October 2012 in Bonn, Germany, to review a draft of the technical guidelines. The meeting was attended by experts and representatives of the Global Environment Facility (GEF), UN agencies and other relevant research, academic and non-governmental organizations.
The technical guidelines were published in December 2012 and are available for download in the following languages (additional languages will be added as they become available):
