Capacity Building for Enhanced Reporting and Facilitation of International Mutual Learning through Peer-to-Peer Exchange
The GIZ on behalf of the German Federal Minis-try for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) has initiated the "Information Matters: Capacity Building for Enhanced Reporting and Facilitation of Interna-tional Mutual Learning through Peer-to-Peer Ex-change" Project, which aims to provide technical support to the Philippines through the Climate Change Commission (CCC) in building and im-proving climate information basis in order to be more able to plan and implement national low carbon development policies. These information bases include data collection of emissions invento-ries, emissions trends, emissions reduction poten-tials, ongoing mitigation actions, climate policies, financial, technology and capacity building sup-port needs and received support, international collaboration and international commitments, and established procedures and methodologies to monitor and collate these data. Ricardo-AEA, as a subcontractor of GIZ, provides the technical ex-pertise for the capacity building missions to the CCC and sectoral lead agencies including back-stopping support. The content of these CB work-shops is decided in close consultation between GIZ and CCC.
The training-workshop on Climate Relevant Data Management was conducted on August 11-13, 2014 in the Phillipines. This activity aimed to build the capacities of the participants on collection, storage, and management of climate relevant data, ensuring its quality and reliability.
