Webinar: Reporting adaptation through the biennial transparency report
to Europe/Copenhagen
Location: online

With the adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015, countries have agreed to significantly enhance the scope, quality, and frequency of their adaptation reporting. As part of this development, by 2024, countries will be expected to undertake their national adaptation reporting via the BTR, a new reporting-instrument that will be submitted by countries to the UNFCCC every two years to report on the progress countries are making towards all the goals of the Paris Agreement. To discuss this transition and what it will mean for how countries report on adaptation to the UNFCCC going forwards, UNEP DTU Partnership and the Initiative for Climate Action Transparency (ICAT) will be hosting a webinar on October 7th. Specifically, we will discuss how the BTR fits into the UNFCCC's landscape of planning and reporting instruments, what its role in this landscape is, and what information related to adaptation countries are expected to include in their BTR reports. Speakers Thomas W.
