ICAT PROJECT DETAILS: PHASE I

Objectives

Support the development of a methodology to calculate the effect of different sets of mitigation actions in terms of avoided GHG emissions. The project also contributed to establishing an MRV framework by defining indicators for tracking the implementation of the Brazilian NDC and developing a draft decree which expands the regulation of the climate change national policy to cover the tracking of the NDCs.

Workplan

  1. Assessment and analysis of the current status of NDC implementation
  2. Assessment of additional mitigation actions with input from relevant stakeholders
  3. Proposal of a methodology for the development of a MRV system to track the implementation of the NDC
  4. Draft of an MRV bill
