Deepening efforts to accelerate NDC implementation in Mongolia

 

Project Summary

As a part of the global programme on NDC support, the current project aims to address the gap in the NDC partnership plan and ensure the parallel processes are well coordinated. A close partnership of the NDC working group and SDG thematic working groups will be facilitated by the project to ensure cross-sectoral collaboration and coordination. The objective of the project is to ensure a well-coordinated NDC process that would result in an actionable plan with a robust financing strategy fully aligned with the SDGs and Mongolia’s 2030 Vision document that was approved in 2016.

Project Objectives

The objective will be achieved through two inter-linked Outputs focusing on overall coordination of NDC processes and specific sectoral inputs to the NDC. NDC priority measures for transport and construction sectors will be identified with cost-benefit analysis and financing needs assessments. Especially the transport sector will be able to better quantify and monitor its emissions in air, land and water transportations with MRV system and GHG data collections and inventory system put in place through the support of the project.
