3 Project management

4 Not only excellent technical and scientific capacities Project Team MANAGEMENT SKILLS COMMUNICATION SKILLS SOUND KNOWLEDGE OF EU REGULATIONS FAMILIARITY WITH TURKEY

5 National Competences National focal point and the coordinator of issues related to climate change in Turkey Responsible for the harmonization of national environmental legislation with EU acquis and its implementation. Executer of climate change activities under the interministerial Coordination Board on Climate Change (CBCC)*. Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat) is responsible for coordinating and compiling the greenhouse gases inventory. *The CBCC is also responsible for fulfilling the requirements of UNFCCC obligations

6 Objective and purpose of the project OBJECTIVE To support Turkey in its efforts to contribute efficiently and effectively to the EU effort to achieve the stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level which prevents dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system PURPOSE To provide the essential elements for the establishment and contribute to a fully functioning monitoring mechanism of greenhouse gas emissions in Turkey, in line with the EU Regulation 525/2013/EU on Monitoring and Reporting Mechanism for GHG emissions

7 Consortium Approach EXPERIENCE / TEAM Local knowledge Local networks Multi-skilled CC Experience Local language skills METHODOLOGY Inclusive & consultative Focus on individuals & institutions Local relevance Modular capacity building Efficient & Costeffective management ORGANIZATION Attractive communication tools Local offices

8 Turn key challenges Legislative Vacuum Enhancing estimation of emissions in line with IPCC good practice guidance Improvement of Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures Engaging requirements at UNFCCC and EU level Provide a set of projections as required by the UNFCCC reporting guidelines

9 into key success factors Stakeholders Involvement Central role of the stakeholders Coordination Face-to-face meetings and continous dialogue Exchange of information Prioritization Identification of priorities Study of the initial findings of the meetings Training and assistance needs analysis (TANA) Potential overlaps and duplications with other projects Identification of eventual overlaps and duplications Coordination of activities Increase synergies and integration Efficient use of the available budget Satisfaction of country specific needs Selection of training activities Impact and sustainability Balanced national dimension of the project Fulfillment of international obligations Balance between implementation constraints and Country s needs
