Description:
|
This
project aims at enabling Albania to prepare and
report its Second National Communication with the
Conference of the Parties of the UN Framework
Convention on Climate Change. It will be a follow up
of previous studies already identified under a
stocktaking exercise. The project will be working
under a priority area / category selection approach in
order to allocate resources in the most effective
manner.
The main components of the project are:
- An inventory of
greenhouse gases for the year 2000 and time series
1994-2000;
- An update of
analysis of potential measures to abate the increase
in greenhouse gas emissions in Albania;
- An assessment of
potential impacts of climate change in a selected
area of Albania and adaptation measures; and
- Preparation of the
Second National Communication of Albania and
submission to the Conference of Parties.
In
addition, public awareness activities and stakeholder
consultations will be cross-cutting along the overall
course of this exercise therefore, the preparation of
the Second National Communication is expected to
enhance general awareness and knowledge on climate
change-related issues in Albania, and help take them
into account during the process of national planning
and policy. |
