Ecuador's central instrument for NDC planning and implementation is its NDC Action Plan, a compilation of 11 sectoral climate roadmaps with clear outputs and responsibilities and which development was partially supported through the Partnership. The embedded facilitator promotes partner coordination around this instrument. Through the Climate Action Enhancement Package, members have mobilized close to USD 1 million to support Ecuador on improving sectoral data collection, institutional arrangements and on establishing local and sector-specific policy frameworks. Importantly, embedded Partnership support has been instrumental to mainstream the gender perspective into climate action through the government's Gender and Climate Change Commission. Moving forward, Ecuador plans to submit its NDC Action Plan and a package of approx. USD 600 million in sectoral investment needs to pursue support from Partnership members. These investments are expected to tackle climate, sustainable development needs and economic recovery, a field in which embedded advisory support is providing insight on.
