- Publication 18 September 2025 National Inventory Document Template / Plantilla de CBIT-GSP para el Documento del Inventario Nacional The development of national greenhouse gas inventories (NGI) is a task requiring highly technical precision that the Parties to the Paris Agreement shall undertake biennially starting from 2024. Its multiple benefits include providing the Parties, especially developing countries, with a means to track progress made in implementing and achieving their committed goals for GHG emission control and reduction to mitigate climate impacts. Nevertheless, it is not only important to periodically carry…
- Publication 17 September 2025 Preparing the adaptation chapter of biennial transparency reports: A template for countries High-quality adaptation reporting has become more pertinent under the Paris Agreement, with vital processes such as the global stocktake being extremely reliant on the information reported by Parties to assess progress made towards achieving the Paris Agreement’s global goal on adaptation. To date, adaptation information reported by Parties has typically been insufficiently comparable and complete, and reported too infrequently. This hinders robust assessments of global progress. The…
