Enabling Albania to prepare its Second National Communication in Response to its Commitments to the UNFCCC
(March 2005 - December 2009)

Service line: 3.1 Frameworks and strategies for sustainable development
Duration: March 2005 - December 2009
Budget: Estimated total: $405,000
UNDP-GEF
2009 Delivery: $ 71,000
Description:

This project aims at enabling Albania to prepare and report its Second National Communication with the Conference of the Parties of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. It will be a follow up of previous studies already identified under a stocktaking exercise. The project will be working under a priority area / category selection approach in order to allocate resources in the most effective manner.

The main components of the project are:
  • An inventory of greenhouse gases for the year 2000 and time series 1994-2000;
  • An update of analysis of potential measures to abate the increase in greenhouse gas emissions in Albania;
  • An assessment of potential impacts of climate change in a selected area of Albania and adaptation measures; and
  • Preparation of the Second National Communication of Albania and submission to the Conference of Parties.

In addition, public awareness activities and stakeholder consultations will be cross-cutting along the overall course of this exercise therefore, the preparation of the Second National Communication is expected to enhance general awareness and knowledge on climate change-related issues in Albania, and help take them into account during the process of national planning and policy.
