According to the global environmental legal framework of the UNFCCC, the Paris Agreement has launched its climate action agenda that seeks to realize deep decarbonization and just transition towards net-zero emission goals by 2050. To date, climate governance is a critical mandate from aspects of national policy legalization, technology R＆D, economic development, low-carbon society, and diplomacy strategy. Above mentioned climate actions have become a competitive foundation for future decision-making at different levels. Based on the legal framework of Taiwan’s Greenhouse Gas Reduction and Management Act, this project aims to ensure equality of national climate policy in aspects of competitiveness, energy security, economic growth, and sustainable environment. Meanwhile, the project also reviews feasible and practical measures on ambitions of National Determined Contributions (NDCs), Long-Term Strategies (LTS) and strategical practices on climate ＆ energy policies to assist the Taiwan EPA in exploring legal solutions and incentive policy instruments according to the net-zero emission trends under the Paris Agreement. Therefore, targeting Taiwan’s strategic development proposes of the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement, the primary research tasks include as follows: 1.Studying negotiation progress of the UNFCCC and Paris Agreement in response to Taiwan’s climate legalization agenda; 2.Studying the development of mid-term and long-term low carbon strategies amid development trends of the Paris Agreement for proposing Taiwan climate action strategies; 3.Promoting the multilateral collaboration partnerships for building collaboration opportunities and innovative governance on climate legislative development; 4.Organizing preparatory works for the Taiwan EPA to participate in the UNFCCC’s conference activities and analyzing international climate negotiation trends.
