Enabling Croatia to Prepare its Initial National Communication in Response to its Commitments to UNFCCC

Croatia's GEF-Funded Project to Prepare First UNFCCC National Communication, May 22, 1998
This project proposal, dated May 22, 1998, outlines a Global Environment Facility (GEF) funded initiative to enable the Republic of Croatia to prepare its first National Communication in response to its commitments under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The purpose is to provide Croatia with the necessary support and resources to fulfill this specific reporting obligation under the UNFCCC. The scope of the project is focused solely on the preparation process of this initial National Communication. Key obligations addressed are the reporting requirements mandated by the UNFCCC for eligible countries. While the National Communication itself would cover various sectors contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and removals (such as industry, energy, land use, etc., noting Croatia's key sectors like petrochemicals, electrical engineering, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, and tourism), the project's scope is limited to the technical and institutional process of compiling the communication, not implementing sectoral actions. No specific deadlines for the submission of the National Communication are mentioned within this document, but the project duration is set for 18 months. The primary regulation/statute name referenced is the UNFCCC. The project is funded by GEF (US$ 345,600), implemented by UNDP, executed by UN OPS, and involves the State Directorate for the Protection of Nature and Environment as both the GEF and FCCC Focal Point in Croatia.
