April Deunnice Simpao

Position: Climate Policy Advisor
Location: Philippines, Manila

I am working on the general climate policy work, including mitigation, adaptation, climate finance and climate diplomacy. I also worked with the transport sector in the context of mitigation, through Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC), and adaptation, through the National Adaptation Plan (NAP). Prior to working with GIZ, I was with the Philippine government under the Climate Change Commission, the lead policymaking body for climate change in the country, and worked on the NAP and access to climate finance mechanisms.
