Technical assistance with a narrow focus, immediate policy relevance, and carried out with national champions with financial and/or planning authority was key to the successful integration of climate technologies in country investment plans. Careful and realistic planning is required for the production and dissemination of outputs, since this involves multiple institutions within a given timeframe. Regarding the selection of implementing agency, it is important to assign the government agency with direct responsibility as the implementing agency for achieving the TA objectives as this enhances the value addition of the TA and its contribution to the desired impact and outcome. Selection of an appropriate implementing agency is especially critical in cutting-edge technology projects.
