CECC Recognized as a UNFCCC Climate Action Solution

The Council on Ethanol Clean Cooking (CECC) has been officially recognized as a Climate Action Solution under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and is now listed on NAZCA – the Non-State Actor Zone for Climate Action, UNFCCC’s Global Climate Action Portal.

What is the NAZCA?

NAZCA (Non-State Actor Zone for Climate Action) is the UN Climate Change transparency hub for non-Party stakeholders and a central pillar of the Global Climate Action Agenda. The portal was created in recognition that addressing climate change requires ambitious, coordinated action across all segments of society, including governments, regions, cities, companies, investors, civil society, and voluntary initiatives.

NAZCA provides a global online platform that showcases climate actions, commitments, plans, inventories, and progress reported by a wide range of actors, offering a clear and comprehensive view of global climate action beyond national governments.

CECC and the Global Climate Action Agenda

CECC’s recognition as a Climate Action Solution under NAZCA underscores its contribution to the Global Climate Action Agenda, highlighting the importance of clean cooking in delivering climate mitigation, health, gender, and development co-benefits. It also reinforces CECC’s commitment to transparency, collaboration, and scaling practical solutions that support countries in achieving their climate and sustainable development goals.
