Case Study: Philippines
For the respective country, the student will:
– Describe its international climate change commitment (so-called Nationally Determined Contribution or NDC) under the Paris Agreement (the version available in English);
– Assess, discuss and explain the NDC’s coverage, level of ambition and fairness, and alignment with the overall objective of the Paris Agreement.
– Use an existing coding scheme to assess the NDC’s alignment with the country’s domestic climate change policies.
Overall, the case study will thus situate the country’s NDC between the two objectives of satisfying domestic (climate-, energy-, or other related) interests and the international global goal of addressing climate change.
The written assignment will be based on literature provided during the course, data sources and coding schemes suggested during the course, additional literature and information sources that the student will collect, and own critical thinking. Complete and correct referencing will be assessed. As in any written assignment, plagiarism is not allowed.
