	Output 1.1.1 Emission factors for agriculture, forestry and land use, energy, transport, industries and waste  sectors developed 
Output 1.1.2 Data collection and processing hubs fully functioning
Output 1.1.3 MoUs between REMA and sectors are established to collect data, which are later processed and shared by REMA
Output 1.1.4 Robust national system for GHG emission inventories and MRV systems in place
Output 1.1.5 Ministry staff use state of the art equipment, tools & protocols to track and report GHG emissions
Output 1.1.6 MRV system institutionalized in the government operating structure	CBIT	400,000	250,000
Component 2: Targeted capacity building of key stakeholders to collect, process and feed data into the GHG emissions inventory system 
(including on gender disaggregated data management for the GHG emissions inventory and MRV system)
	  FORMDROPDOWN  	Outcome 2.1 Capacity of stakeholders strengthened on data collection and processing protocols; and procurement of state-of-the art equipment and tools
	Output 2.1.1 Field data teams from the key emission sectors (agriculture, forestry and land use, energy, transport, industries and waste sectors) convened and trained in collection, processing and transmission of GHG data
Output 2.1.2 Twenty (TBC at PPG) people from REMA and other sectors  trained in domestic MRV systems, tracking NDCs, enhancement of GHG inventories and emission projections 
Output 2.1.3 Best practices shared and scaled out through peer exchange programs for stakeholders on transparency activities	CBIT	250,000	225,000
Component 3: 
Integrated Platform for Data Sharing and Policy Making
	  FORMDROPDOWN  	Outcome 3.1 Fully developed data collection, integration and sharing platform for use by stakeholders as a one stop source of information for transparency reporting
	Output 3.1.1 A data integration platform built and established 
Output 3.1.2 Data for GHG inventory and MRV system aggregated from different sources, entered on data integrating platform and fed into the Global CBIT Coordination Platform 
Output 3.1.3 National inventory of greenhouse gas emissions established and made publically available
Output 3.1.4 Stakeholders capacity to contribute to integration and utilization of data platform strengthened CBIT
