dc.descriptionThis report contains the main results of the Third FAO Regional Workshop on statistics for greenhouse gas emissions, Casablanca, Morocco, 02-03 December 2013. The objectives of the workshop were to: i) raise awareness of the importance of agricultural statistics for preparing national Greenhouse Gas (GHG) inventories and mitigation plans; ii) explore the need for increased capacity in view of Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) and Biennial Update Reports (BURs) preparation and sub mission under the United Nations Conventions on Climate Change; and iii) facilitate communication and exchange of relevant knowledge on GHG data for agriculture, forestry and other land uses, identifying challenges, gaps, and opportunities for improving national data systems and analysis tools. The workshop identified improved coordination of national activities and actors as essential to meet commitments for the BURs. Key issues highlighted for progress included reliability, sustainability and comprehensiveness of data collection and analysis procedures. Countries identified the need for improved institutional arrangements as the most crucial and critical, underpinned by the need to provide human, technical and financial resources for development, implementation and maintenance of sound GHG inventories. A key role for FAO was identified and recommended, in order to ensure sustainable assistance to its Member Countries, to facilitate dissemination of technical material, and to further develop its capacity development activities based on country needs and in collaboration with relevant agencies.
