Targeted Expert Assistance Short-term, small-scale grants to unlock policy action Share SHARE Facebook share Twitter LinkedIn Copy URL Email About Recent projects Meet the experts Breadcrumb Home Our work Technical assistance services Targeted expert assistance Our Targeted Expert Assistance service provides timely short-term assistance to help advance short-lived climate pollutant mitigation planning and implementation. CCAC-supported experts can provide guidance on a range of short-lived climate pollutant challenges, such as technological options, mitigation measures, funding opportunities, application of measurement tools, and policy development. These services typically last less than 12 months, are small in scale (up to US $50,000) and are implemented by means of an international expert recruited by the CCAC. Who can apply This service supports requests from governments working to reduce short-lived climate pollutants in specific sectors or as part of overall mitigation planning and implementation. These include: National government agencies or initiatives Subnational, local and municipal governments Regional economic integration organisations Only governments that are eligible for official development assistance can be supported. How to apply Complete the Targeted Expert Assistance application form and send it to the CCAC Secretariat for review. A member of the Secretariat will respond to your request within 2-5 business days.  Request assistance now Additional sources of assistance For service requests outside the scope of the CCAC's work, support may be available through: Clean Energy Solution Center Climate Technology Center Technical Assistance LED's Technical Assistance Green Growth Knowledge Platform  Recent assistance Previous Next Paraguay - Supporting the development of a resolution to reduce SLCPs from HDVEs Heavy-duty vehicles and engines Paraguay - Supporting the development of a resolution to reduce SLCPs from HDVEs Moldova - Finalize emissions projections and gridded emission estimates for CLRTAP reporting National policy and planning Moldova - Finalize emissions projections and gridded emission estimates for CLRTAP reporting Bosnia and Herzegovina - Accelerating implementation of coal mine methane mitigation measures Fossil fuels Bosnia and Herzegovina - Accelerating implementation of coal mine methane mitigation measures Senegal – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap National policy and planning Senegal – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap Rwanda - Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap National policy and planning Rwanda - Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap Nepal – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap National policy and planning Nepal – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap Moldova – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap National policy and planning Moldova – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap Ghana – Develop SLCP measures for the 2024 NDC update National policy and planning Ghana – Develop SLCP measures for the 2024 NDC update Cameroon – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap National policy and planning Cameroon – Develop a National SLCP Plan and National Methane Roadmap Bosnia and Herzegovina – Develop a National SLCP Plan, National Methane Roadmap, and MRV Framework National policy and planning Bosnia and Herzegovina – Develop a National SLCP Plan, National Methane Roadmap, and MRV Framework Meet the experts The Solution Centre’s experts are qualified and renowned in their fields.
