Malawi Climate Transparency Framework
To strengthen the capacity of institutions in Malawi and set up an information system to fulfill the enhanced transparency requirements of teh Paris Agreement
Malawi’s institutions effectively collaborate to track and report Greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions, climate actions and support received
A data collection, integration and sharing platform is regularly used by a broad set of stakeholders for climate transparency activities
The climate transparency unit, relevant sector institutions and stakeholders are able to perform their roles in the MRV system on a continuous basis
