Profile picture for user franck.anvou@undp.org
N'DRI Franck Melaine Anvou

I am currently working as an expert in monitoring and evaluation. In this context, I support the National Program on Climate Change (NPCC) of Côte d'Ivoire in the implementation of its national MRV system (mitigation, adaptation, financing). I also work on the development of the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) of Côte d'Ivoire.

I am a development project manager and have been working on planning and integrating climate action into national planning since 2015. I also have some certifications on climate change (mitigation, adaptation and finance) and member of the MRV community of practice at sub-regional level.

Progress
>to be provided by the country focal point<
The law on climate change to improve transparency is being adopted. Also, a national group of experts on climate change in Côte d'Ivoire is being created. In addition, 8 MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING on GHG inventories have been developed and will be signed with the sectors to facilitate data collection on GHG inventories and the MRV system being deployed. A long-term climate strategy is being developed. Approximately 30 institutions191 beneficiaries, 40% of whom are women (representing ministries, universities, research centers, the private sector and civil society organizations) have strengthened their capacities on the rules and methodological approaches of GHG calculation, the understanding of MRV, the QA/QC procedures manual and the sensibi.
