Project Details

Overview

Uganda as a signatory to the PA is required to provide necessary information to track progress towards implementing and achieving NDCs and reducing GHG Emissions in the key emitting sectors of ; Agriculture, Energy and Transport, Waste and Forestry. The government of Uganda received a grant from GEF to support institutions to respond to enhanced transparency requirements of the PA. Under this project, there are three focus areas namely; 1) Support to establish and strengthen the institutional arrangement for robust GHGI and MRV system 2) Build capacity of key stakeholders to collect, process, and feed gender disaggregated data into the GHGI system 3) Test and pilot the GHGI and MRV system
