Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)

As part of the larger enhanced transparency framework for the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Climate Change Tools and Resources platform consists of targeted institutional arrangements; measuring, reporting and verification (MRV); nationally determined contributions (NDC); Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E);data sources; and publications for a variety of different focal areas to use for reporting on climate change. In addition, FAO offers E-learning courses specifically in the fields of greenhouse gas inventory and forest transparency.
