Good Practice: Chilean MRV framework for mitigation actions

Chile developed a framework which ensures MRV approaches for individual mitigation actions are developed using a uniform process based on the WRI Policy and Action Standavvvrd, using common sectoral assumptions to provide comparability with existing projections, are aligned with data and emission factors in the national GHG inventory where feasible, avoid double counting and are reported using standardized reports on implementation and impacts. The reported data provides quality information for political decision-making and reporting on implementation of mitigation action at the national level as well as input for the Biennial Update Report (BUR) compilation.The process is supported by guidance for all steps and reporting templates.Chile is currently applying the MRV framework to Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs). It can, however, be applied to any kind of mitigation action.
