Strengthening capacity in the agriculture and land-use sectors for enhanced transparency in implementation and monitoring of Cambodia’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC)

By 2020 Cambodia is preparing reports to the UNFCCC under the Paris Agreement Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF) with strengthened agriculture and land use sector components including inventories of emissions sources and sinks and information necessary to track progress against priority actions identified in Cambodia’s NDC for these sectors.
Institutional arrangements coordinating information and data collection from the agriculture and land use sectors into ETF processes and reports enhanced.
Best practices on ETF reporting processes, information gathering, system infrastructure, methodologies in the agriculture and land-use sectors disseminated to relevant priority sectors (e.g. energy, industry/trade, transportation).
Reporting on inventories of emissions sources and sinks and mitigation activities from agriculture and land-use sectors strengthened.
Monitoring and reporting of NDC priority adaptation actions in the agriculture and land-use sectors strengthened.
