Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector (CBIT-Forest): accelerating capacity-building, knowledge-sharing and awareness raising
| Project's full title | Building global capacity to increase transparency in the forest sector (CBIT-Forest): accelerating capacity-building, knowledge-sharing and awareness raising |
|---|---|
| Introduction | Developing countries have enhanced capacity, knowledge and awareness on forest-related data collection, analysis and dissemination to meet the enhanced transparency requirements of the Paris Agreement. |
| Country | Italy |
| Start date | 01/01/2024 |
| End date | 31/12/2026 |
| Status | Ongoing |
| Budget | 2,000,000 USD |
| Project Code | GCP /GLO/11316/GFF |
| Objective / Goal | The new project is responding to identified barriers to enhanced transparency, including i) documented MRV/ETF gaps and needs related to data collection and quality of data, highlighted by a recent CGE UNFCCC global assessment; ii) collection and updated forest information logistically challenging and expensive, as forests are often located in remote areas; and iii) improved data and data availability to advance reporting, linking to global-regional-country Capacity-Building efforts. |
