Project Details

Overview

As a party to the Paris Agreement, BiH has an obligation to report on its progress towards the NDC (nationally determined contribution) and on other aspects of climate change action based on improved transparency frameworks in accordance with Article 13 of the Agreement. Article 13 provides a framework for improved transparency with an aim to build mutual trust and reliability and promoting the effective implementation of the activities identified by the NDC. Currently, Bosnia and Herzegovina has to meet its growing reporting obligations with limited resources. The country needs to move from an ad hoc climate change monitoring, reporting and verification system to a continuous data collection system with an emphasis on collecting high quality data.
