About the webinar

This webinar will present the main results obtained from the ICAT Project in Ecuador, focusing on the development of a series of sectoral technical guidelines that define procedures and methodology to improve the collection and management of data useful for the preparation of national GHG inventories in its Energy (Fuel Burning in Manufacturing and Construction Industry category), IPPU (Minerals Industry Category), Agriculture and Waste sectors according to the IPCC 2006 Guidelines.

This set of guidelines was developed by the Government of Ecuador with the support of the Climate Action Transparency Initiative (ICAT) project, focusing on the involvement and capacity building of organizations that generate or manage data and information for the main categories described above, which coincidentally tend to be the main categories in most GHG inventories in the countries of the region.

The webinar will be conducted in Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the LEDS LAC Platform Secretariat: info@ledslac.org.
