By providing clear and robust data and information on climate action, transparency also serves to build trust, credibility and accountability among all those involved.
Aiming to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate change, Parties adopted the Paris Agreement in 2015, and through it established an Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF). Parties under the Enhanced Transparency Framework are required to submit their first Biennial Transparency Report (BTR1) and national inventory report, if submitted as a stand-alone report, in accordance with the MPGs, by 31 December 2024 at the latest.
UNEP supports countries in adopting the Enhanced Transparency Framework by providing technical and financial support for reporting and support for high-quality, credible, open climate and environmental data, information, statistics, as well as scientific assessments and expertise. UNEP also focuses on building and developing national capacity for climate information services and impact-based multi-hazard early warning systems in developing countries, particularly in LDCs and SIDS.
