3.1D.1 Building the Mitigation Arrangements for the Mitigation Assessment CGE TRAINING MATERIALS - MITIGATION ASSESSMENT MODULE G

3.2D.2 Module Objectives and Expectations 1.Objective: Provide participants with an overview of the new toolkit developed by the CGE, to assist Parties in developing and maintaining their mitigation assessments. 2.Expectations: Participants will have a sound understanding of how to use the new CGE documentation toolkit. 2

3.3 Module Objective The CGE has developed a documentation toolkit to assist Parties in developing and maintaining the mitigation component of a national development plan. The toolkit consists of five linked documents containing tables that can be filled out as needed, and adapted to local circumstances. The toolkit is intended to: –Reduce the effort required by future teams to develop the mitigation assessments; –Promote consistency within and among reports over time. 3

3.4 Components of the Documentation Toolkit A: Key Sectoral Emissions Analysis –Maps emissions inventory estimates to key sectors of the mitigation analysis and documents business-as-usual (BAU) emissions projections. B: Institutional Arrangements for Mitigation Activities –Summarizes existing institutional arrangements for GHG mitigation analysis in your country, and helps mitigation teams assess and document the strengths and weaknesses of these existing arrangements. 4

3.5 Components of the Documentation Toolkit C: Mitigation Assessment Methods and Data Sources –Documents methods and resources used for screening mitigation options, developing mitigation scenarios and evaluating mitigation actions. D: Mitigation Analysis Archiving System –Establishes procedures to retain and store data and documents for future use and reference. E: National Plan for Further Mitigation Assessment –Identifies and prioritizes improvements to national mitigation assessments 5
