National Carbon Monitoring Centre (NCMC) is working very close with United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and United Nations Environment Programme to strengthening the Capacity of Institutions in Tanzania to conform to the Transparency Requirements of the Paris Agreement.
The Paris Agreement empowers countries to act towards limiting global average temperature increases to as close to 1.5C as possible above pre-industrial levels, to strengthen climate resilience and to make financial flows consistent with these overall objectives.
Regular reporting by countries of transparent information on the implementation and achievement of their national objectives, provides a snapshot of global progress in relation to the objectives of the Paris Agreement, helping to enable a global assessment of collective progress. In turn, the reported information undergoes peer assessment, which helps to build mutual trust and confidence among countries, provide a better understanding of current climate actions and levels of support needed and provided. Through this process countries gain the opportunity to learn from each other by sharing achievements, best practices, and experiences.
