The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) provides the basis for concerted international action to mitigate climate change and to adapt to its impacts. The Handbook aims at providing an overview of the institutional framework as well as the thematic work undertaken under the convention. It targets governments, researchers, non-governmental organisations and others interested in the international climate change negotiations.

Commissioned by the secretariat of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Ecologic is preparing an official handbook on the UNFCCC.
