2021 : A successful year for ClimateChance in a still complicated contextIn 2021 Climate Chance continued and consolidated the development of its activities aimed at boosting global non-state climateaction, and this within a context still strongly marked by the healthcrisis impacting the international climate agenda.SHARINGANALYSINGWe have continued to adapt our modes of action and have demonstrated agility by retaining, in particular, the Climate Chance Summit Africa as a virtual event. It was indeed important to gatherthe actors from the local areas in this continent some monthsahead of COP26. At the same time, and throughout the year, wecontinued holding Virtual Workshops - the motivating multi-actorwork being carried out through our African Coalitions.Climate Chance has published new editions of its Global GlobalSynthesis Report on climate action: “Local climate action” and“Sector-based”, benefitting from a new editorial approach. The two2021 reports have aroused great interest in the climate communityand the media. Our climate portal for action has also undergone anoverhaul, presenting a new space dedicated to the Observatory'sAnnual Reports for richer, more accessible, and better referencedcontent. The end of the year was marked by the announcementof a Climate Chance Summit Europe, an event that will be held insynergy with the European climate conference organised by thePrésidence Française du Conseil de l’Union Européenne (PFUE)[French Presidency of the Council of the European Union] in March2022. To be continued The unique positioning of Climate Chance is based, on the one hand, on thethree tasks that the association has set for itself - bringing together theclimate actors, analysing climate action, sharing climate information - andon the other, on the tools and resources it has developed and continues torefine to amplify the scope of its actions.Bringing together the non-stateclimate actorsSince 2015, events, Summits and Coalitions, based on a bottom-up approachand collaborative work, have been the DNA of Climate Chance. The aimis to make an inventory of climate actions undertaken and their results,and to boost synergy between the different types of non-state actors. TheClimate Chance Summits are the time our community comes together andprovides the opportunity to work on the priorities and common proposalsmade during major events on the climate agenda, in particular the COPs.The 2021 Climate Chance Summit Africa is held in September, in a virtualsetting, because of the health situation. We continued our work in mobilising non-state African actors by organising 10 Virtual Workshops bringingtogether 1000 participants from about 100 countries.PRESENTATIONUNITINGAnalysing climate actionA unique global reference work for decision makers, the Observatory’sClimate Chance Annual Report analyses and summarises each year theclimate actions actually carried out by local authorities, businesses, civilsociety and finance actors. The non-state Climate Action Global SynthesisReport follows and evaluates the progress observed over the past year,displaying and probing in-depth the successes and failures of the actionscarried out by non-state actors. In April of 2021, the Observatory publishedthe Local climate action Report and organised the Climate Chance Talksto present and discuss its trends. In November, at COP26, the Sector-basedReport was launched, followed again by Climate Chance Talks and a presentation at the Virtual Climate Summit. Throughout the year, case studiesas well as new analyses were published, particularly on multi-level climateGovernance in G20 countries.Sharing and spreading climate informationDedicated to the climate action of local authorities, businesses, and civilsociety actors, our portal for action gathers - in French and English - numerous resources and good practices for and by climate actors at the globalscale. With the aim of building the capacities of actors, it contributes tothe distribution, sharing, and spin-off of their work, and offers three complementary tools: the Cartography for action, the climate Library and theClimate Agenda. In 2021, the Portal continued its development with anoverhaul of the Observatory space dedicated to Annual Reports and newshared projects on the Cartography.910

RESOURCES // PORTAL FOR ACTIONPORTALFOR ACTIONOur Portal for Climate Action aims to strengthen the capacities of non-state actors by making a shared knowledge baseavailable in both French and English, and by publicising andsharing their initiatives and encouraging spin-offs. Besides theevents organised by Climate Chance and the Observatory’spublications - in particular the Annual Reports - the Portal provides access to three tools that complement each other: theCartography for action, the Climate Library, and the ClimateAgenda. Many content and news items, and background indepth analyses are regularly published. Each year we continuedeveloping the Portal in order to make it more accessible andbetter able to promote our own actions, but also the initiativesof all non-state actors.Reference resources and specific toolsOur Portal brings together a set of resourcesreferring to the major issues and themes related to climate and lists the work - the notableinitiatives - of non-state climate actors aroundthe world.Three specific tools allow access to, and thesharing of climate reference resources (reports,in-depth analyses, etc.) kept in the Action Library: a regularly updated International Climate Agenda to keep you informed of themajor global meetings, and an Cartographyfor action highlighting a selection of climateprojects, solutions carried out by non-stateactors and listed by Climate Chance.The Portal also informs about our various newsitems, events organised by Climate Chance,conferences and workshops in which we givetalks, and it gives access to all of the Observatory’s publications and in-depth analyses.A completely renewed Observatory spaceIn 2021 we overhauled the web space dedicated to the Observatory’s Climate ChanceAnnual Reports with the aim of improving thenavigation, the access to the information, andthe reading of reports.This overhaul was necessary given the largenumber of theme-based collections and editions published since 2018. It also makes itpossible to integrate and optimise the neweditorial approach implemented at the endof 2021, with the Sector-based Report.Reading is made easier by offering variouslevels for obtaining the essentials or for probingin more detail; infographics are available; hyperlinks offer improved browsing. More contenthas also been incorporated, allowing betterreferencing on the web.Browsing and searching for content (which isenriched from year to year) from the Observatory’s past and forthcoming publications,have been optimised. A new interface makesit possible to grasp its relevance and richnessin a more intuitive and immediate manner, toaccess the searched content more directly.1314

This year, the Observatory published the 4th edition of itsGlobal synthesis Report on climate action by sector, as well asits 3rd Global synthesis Report on local climate action.Sector-based ReportThe main takeaways of the 2021 Sector-basedReport were unveiled at a press conferenceat the COP26, on 8 November. They were alsohighlighted and investigated during variousside-events co-organised with ICLEI, WECF,FERN, CCRE and GGGI, IDFC, ENDA ENERGIE.A second event sequence which brought together nearly 400 participants was held virtually on the occasion of the release of theSector-based Report in the week of 29 November: a press conference, five roundtables ofpresentations and high-level discussions withthe experts from the Climate Chance Talks, thena presentation at the Virtual Climate Summit“6 years after COP21, what are the trends andbest practices in non-state climate action?”The 4th edition of the Sector-based Report,“Back to the future. 2021: the grand acceleration in climate action . and emissions” madea qualitative leap by offering a new editorialapproach aimed to make it easier to handle,read and understand. This editorial overhaulwas also accompanied by a new web spaceon the internet site enhancing the richnessof its content, strengthening its visibility, andoffering improved referencing.The 2021 Sector-based Report was the subjectof a special 16-page notebook, published overthe course of November on the web and theDecember edition of the monthly AlternativesEconomiques.17WHAT THEY SAY“At COP26, there are more promises andstatements about the future than analysisof past achievements. In this, the 2021report on global climate action by sectoris a gold mine”.The 2021 Sector-based Report is also: 200 pages of analyses, in French and English, 6 sectors,more than 100 indicators, 19 trends, 50 signals,18 case studies, more than 40 qualitative spinoffs in the French and international media: AEFInfo, BIP, Challenges, Energie und Management,Energy Northern, Environnement Magazine, Environment Analyst, L'Express, L'Usine Nouvelle,La Gazette des Communes, Liberation, LibreBelgique, New in 24, Novethic, Ouest France,RFI, VivAfrik, etc.Local climate action ReportOn April 6, the 3rd edition of the Global synthesis Report on local climate action was published, followed by 2 Climate Chance Talks, inpartnership with the Gazette des Communes.This 2021 Report constitutes a major step, asynthesis and in-depth analysis of the actionsimplemented and results obtained at a locallevel, and appears thanks to the international cooperation of networks and cooperativeinitiatives, at a time of renewing the States'commitments to the United Nations FrameworkConvention on Climate Change, five years afterthe Paris Agreement. It is enriched with newthemes important for climate action: the clearexpression of national climate policies, as wellas the localisation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in local areas. The Ministerfor Ecological Transition has also produced anoff-print of the “SDG” section of the 2021 Reportcombining climate action, SDG 13 and the otherSDGs, for subsequent distribution to the Frenchlocal authorities with the aim of convincing themof the importance of this referenceIt is based on several case studies presentinginnovative experiments by local and regionalgovernments mobilised and particularly committed on the climate front in spite of the Covid-19situation: Dakar, Scotland, Manchester, Occitania,Ontario, Palembang, North Rhine-Westphalia,Turin, etc.The 2021 Local Climate Action Report is also: 150pages of analyses in French and in English 16 casestudies Nearly 30 qualitative media spin-offs:AEF Info, La Dépêche, France Culture, La Gazettedes Communes, Ouest France, La Repubblica, LaTribune, etc.Case Study7 new publications in 2021: Russia “land use” - Spain“energy” - Colombia “transport” - Brazil, Canada,Germany and France “multi-level governance".the Observatory’s publications are cited in various reports: Paris Good Fashion Magbook, GIZreport on the localisation of NDCs, report of theTaskforce of Local and Regional Governments tothe High-Level Political Forum, etc.PUBLICATIONS // OBSERVATORYPRESENTATIONOF THE 2021REPORT ON NONSTATE CLIMATEACTIONANNE TEZENAS OF MONTCEL, JOURNALIST ANDCLIMATE EXPERT“An excellent analysis of the difficultiesand achievements in terms of climateaction, in order to better understand theefforts already made and those still tobe made”.SÉBASTIEN SOLEILLE, ENERGY TRANSITION ANDENVIRONMENT MANAGER, BNP PARIBAS“The Report is a fabulous mine, easy toread and share with colleagues”GILLES VERMOT-DESROCHES, VICE-PRESIDENTCITIZENSHIP AND INSTITUTIONAL RELATIONS,SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC“This report is very important us, the localauthorities, in order to be able to compareourselves with others and see the changesoccurring in all alliances and sectors”.FRÉDÉRIC VALLIER, SECRETARY GENERAL OF THECOUNCIL OF EUROPEAN MUNICIPALITIES AND REGIONS (CEMR)18
PUBLICATIONS // OBSERVATORYTHE 2021OBSERVATORYIS ALSO .Variousprojects carriedout during the yearDecentralised cooperationThe Observatory continues with its work inorder to encourage French local authoritiesto place climate action at the core of theirdecentralised cooperation, with the supportof the Délégation pour l’action extérieure descollectivités territoriales (DAECT) [Delegationfor the External Action of Local Authorities] ofthe Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs.Launched in 2020: the workshops for electedofficials and technicians from French localauthorities on the theme: “How can Frenchdecentralised cooperation contribute moreconcretely to the climate effort in a restrictivehealth and financial environment?”, were continued in 2021 on the following themes: Monitoring and evaluation of adaptation toclimate change projects: how to evaluate theimpact of my adaptation projects? In January2021. In the world after: how to give new impetusto decentralised cooperation in a context ofmultiple restrictions? In February 2021.These workshops are organised in partnership withCités Unies France (CUF) [United Cities of France],l’Association Française du Conseil des Communeset Régions d'Europe (AFCCRE) [the French Association of the Council of European Municipalitiesand Regions] and l'Association Internationale desMaires Francophones (AIMF) [the InternationalAssociation of Francophone Mayors].The Observatory also participated in the “Decentralised Cooperation for Climate in Africa”session held during the Climate Chance SummitAfrica of 2021.Access to climate data forour African actorsMulti-level climate governancein G20 CountriesThe Climate Chance Observatory stimulatesdiscussion on access to climate and energydata for local African actors - a major challengefor improving projects and their financing,better meeting local needs, and ultimatelyimproving state strategies by integrating theactions of their actors.The integration of the climate action potentialof cities and regions is now widely recognisedas indispensable to making the implementation of the Paris Agreement credible. The Climate Chance Observatory suggests exploringthe different national frameworks that the G20countries provide to sub-national and localgovernments to strengthen their capacity todevelop, implement and monitor the progressof their climate plans. It also suggests examining the co-ordination between the planningapproaches at different levels of governance.In 2021 we organised two workshops devotedto this major theme: one held as part of theClimate Chance Virtual Workshops on theissues involving adapted emission factors,the other as part of the 3rd Climate ChanceSummit Africa, to identify the African initiativesthat contribute to improving access to climatedata and their governance; explore concreteavenues for collective work and collaborationthat can be followed on these issues; formulatethe main lessons learned and principles, soas to establish common ground between theactors engaged on this issue.A webinar was organised in 2021 to present theObservatory's first case studies from France,Germany and Canada, as part of the Europeanconferences on energy transition in January2021. Since then, a case study “Multi-level climate governance” for Brazil has been published.The objective was to offer, at each session,a time and a space for discussion in order toraise awareness among practitioners of localauthorities' external actions on the issues,practices, tools and methodologies for implementing a robust decentralised cooperationproject on climate change mitigation or adaptation. All of this will be based on the expertiseof local elected officials and technicians aswell as on that of technical specialists.1920
The Climate Chance Summits are thetime our community comes togetherand provides the opportunity to workon the priorities and common proposals made during major events on theclimate agenda, in particular the COPs.The 3rd Climate Chance Summit Africa,which was initially to be held in Dakar,Senegal, was able to be held virtuallydue to the health situation.Throughout 2021, Climate chance alsoorganised and participated in numerousevents on the international agenda. TheCOP26 at Glasgow was a high point ofvisibility for the association.Through a bottom-up and collaborativeapproach, the African Coalitions continue to develop our network and multi-actor work throughout the year, withindifferent areas of expertise and strategicsectors. In 2021, 10 Virtual Workshopswere held to continue to develop thismulti-actor work.2500 PARTICIPANTS86 COUNTRIES, INCLUDING 46 AFRICANCOUNTRIES (I.E. 3/4 OF THE CONTINENT)EVENTS &COALITIONS130 SPEAKERS, HIGH-LEVEL EXPERTSAND ACTORS IN THE FIELD250 NEW BEST PRACTICES COLLECTEDVIA A CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS, INCLUDING50 INITIATIVES PRESENTED IN A PITCH CORNEREVENTS // COALITIONS1 CLIMATE CHANCE SUMMIT AFRICA30 WEST AFRICAN JOURNALISTS TRAINEDIN ISSUES RELATED TO GLOBAL WARMING10 VIRTUAL WORKSHOPSDEVOTED TO AFRICANCOALITIONS LEDBY CLIMATE CHANCE1000 PARTICIPANTS50 SPEAKERS20 PARTICIPATIONS, TALKS,AND SIDE EVENTSORGANISED DURING INTERNATIONAL EVENTS,MAJOR MEETINGS ON THE INTERNATIONAL CLIMATEAGENDA, OR HIGH-LEVEL THEMATIC MEETINGS:COP26 - VIRTUAL CLIMATE SUMMIT - EU GREENWEEK - AFRICAN CLIMATE WEEK, ETC.9 AFRICAN SECTORAL COALITIONSACCESS TO FINANCESUSTAINABLE MOBILITY AND TRANSPORTENERGY ACCESS AND EFFICIENCYADAPTATION AND WATERAGRICULTURE, FOOD, AND REFORESTATIONDEVELOPING CITIES SUSTAINABLYSUSTAINABLE BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTIONCLIMATE CHANGE EDUCATION AND TRAININGCIRCULAR ECONOMY2122
The event, long-awaited following the absence of the 2020 African Summit, was a high point for mobilisation on issues ofsustainability and the fight against climate change ahead ofCOP26 of November 2021, not forgetting that COP27 of 2022will be held on the African continent, in Egypt.The high points of the SummitFor 3 days, the Summit brought together theclimate community in all of its diversity: elected officials from major African cities such asDakar and Lagos, businesses in Africa thatare active in the fight against climate change,association leaders who push the boundariesin their respective countries, but also donorsand development banks or representativesof the United Nations Convention for the fightagainst Climate Change.Nearly 130 speakers, high-level experts andactors in the field came to share their experiences and best practices.Among the leading figures who spoke were:Jean-Pierre Elong Mbassi, Secretary Generalof UCLG Africa - Soham El Wardini, Mayor ofDakar - Fiona Napier, Africa EngagementLead, UNFCCC - Abdoulaye Sene, ExecutiveSecretary of the 2022 World Water ForumDakar - Nigel Topping, High-Level ClimateChampion, UNFCCC etc.Many partners and networks have been involved in the program: CETUD, UCLG AFRICA,CODATU, CUF, FMDV, FNAU, ICLEI AFRICA, GABC,MTPA, ONU WOMEN, PFE, etc.Among the key issues highlighted at the Summit: the importance of placing inclusivity atthe forefront of our action, particularly foryoung people and women; the need for capacity building of the actors, in order to bettertrain them; the need to finance “soft power”and not only infrastructures; the urgency of23EVENTS // COALITIONS2021CLIMATE CHANCESUMMIT AFRICAThe 2021 edition of the Climate Chance Summit Africa was heldin virtual format from September 15 to 17.

the remotest chance of altering climate if in fact climate is controlled by carbon dioxide. In laymans terms: All of the so-called solutions to global warming are purely symbolic when it comes to climate. So, even if we actually faced a climate catastrophe and we had to rely on a UN climate agreement, we would all be doomed!
