Enabling Slovenia to Prepare its First National Communication in Response to its Commitments to UNFCCC

The project enables Slovenia to prepare its first national communication to the Conference of Parties of the UNFCCC. The components of the project are (a) an inventory of GHG following guidelines adopted by CoP; (b) an assessment of potential impacts of climate change in Slovenia; (c) an analysis of potential measures to abate the increase in ghg emissions in Slovenia and to adapt to climate change; (d) preparation of a national action plan to address climate change and its adverse impacts; and (e) preparation of the first national communication of Slovenia to the CoP. Beside the preparation of the national communication, the project is expected to enhance general awareness and knowledge on climate change related issues in Slovenia, and to strengthen the dialogue, information exchange and cooperation among all the relevant stakeholders including governmental, non-governmental, academic, and private sectors.
