NCSP RESOURCE KIT: The National Communications Process

This manual consists of a resource kit providing comprehensive guidelines on planning the National Communication Project, implementing the Technical Components (The Greenhouse Gas Inventory, The Mitigation Assessment, The V&A Assessment), and Putting Plans into Action. According to the UNFCCC, all parties must report on the steps they are taking or envisage undertaking to implement the Convention by: reporting to the Conference of the Parties (COP) on emissions by sources and removals by sinks of all greenhouse gases not controlled by the Montreal Protocol; national or, where appropriate, regional programmes containing measures to mitigate, and to facilitate adequate adaptation to climate change; and any other information that the Party considers relevant to the achievement of the objective of the Convention.
