April 2014 – A new website was launched recently for the Enhancing Capacity for Low Emission Development Strategies (EC-LEDS) initiative. EC-LEDS is a flagship U.S. program that has forged partnerships with more than 20 developing countries—including Bangladesh, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam—who are planning and implementing Low Emission Development Strategies, or LEDS. Most USAID climate change mitigation work is done under the EC-LEDS umbrella.
Under this program, USAID, the State Department, and other U.S. agencies collaborate with partner countries to develop state-of-the-art knowledge, tools and analyses to estimate GHG emissions and identify and implement the best options for low emission growth. With knowledge, tools and analyses, countries can assess low emission pathways in any economic sector and choose for themselves the best ways to promote low emission development. In the Asia region, the USAID LEAD program supports and complements EC-LEDS activities in South and Southeast Asian partner countries.
The new EC-LEDS website (www.ec-leds.org) provides more details of cooperation with each country, fact sheets, and a frequently asked questions page, among other resources.
