The Role of Non-State Actors in Reviewing Ambition, Implementation and Compliance under the Paris Agreement

This research paper examines the role of non-state actors in the implementation of the Paris Agreement, specifically focusing on their ability to hold parties accountable for their obligations through review processes regarding implementation, compliance, and effectiveness.

• Non-state actors are expected to play a unique and essential role in implementing the Paris Agreement, moving beyond just mitigation commitments to holding parties accountable for their obligations.
• While formal opportunities for non-state actors to participate in review processes—including those for effectiveness, compliance, and implementation—are limited, they possess other means of exerting influence.
