The
project
enabled Albania to prepare its
First
National Communication (FNC) with the Conference of the Parties
of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. The components
of the project were:
-
An inventory of GHG following the guidelines adopted
by the COP;
-
An assessment of potential impacts of climate change
in Albania;
-
An analysis of potential measures to abate the increase
in GHG emissions in Albania and to adapt to climate change;
-
Preparation of a national action plan to address climate
change and its adverse impacts; and
-
Preparation of the First National Communication of Albania
to the CoP.
Beside
the preparation of the FNC, the project has contributed
to enhance general awareness and knowledge on climate
change - related issues in Albania, and to strengthen
the dialogue information exchange and cooperation among
all the relevant stakeholders including governmental,
non-governmental, academic, private sectors.
