The project takes a regional approach to increase capacity for meeting UN Framework Convention on Climate Change objectives, focusing initially on the Maghreb countries. Identifies and strengthens capacities of selected regional and sub-regional organizations, develops indigenous capacity to independently identify cost-effective greenhouse gas strategies, seeks to leverage private sector investments, and builds on national programmes to develop data of GHG sources and sinks.
