An improved MRV framework
In 2023, Mozambique, supported by ICAT, established an effective measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) framework to track its nationally determined contributions (NDCs). With these important improvements, the project will have long-term impact by enabling the country to have the data, processes and capacity to improve transparency and meet commitments it has made under the Paris Agreement.
The foundations of transparency are good data: numbers that are vital for planning, managing and monitoring the implementation of policies and measures, and for assessing if they have met their targets. To collect and process these data, an efficient MRV framework is essential. This allows countries to define what data they need, who is responsible for providing it and how to process data. In turn, this will enable a country to effectively track its NDCs and to meet its commitments under the Paris Agreement.
