Micronesia - Deliver a Methane Roadmap [FM-22-001]

The aim of this project is to provide technical assistance to support Micronesia’s Departments of Environment, Climate Change, and Emergency Management (DECEM) and of Resources and Development in developing a methane roadmap.  

Through the proposed outputs and activities, the project should achieve the following by its completion:
  

• Micronesia’s government endorses the methane roadmap.

The project should deliver at a minimum: 

• A methane roadmap that follows a methodology agreed with the CCAC Secretariat.

Applicants are encouraged to propose additional outputs as needed to ensure the expected project outcomes are achieved.

To be eligible for consideration, project proposals must meet the following requirements:

More information regarding Micronesia’s involvement as a CCAC Partner is available on their Partner Page.

Methane roadmap

Should be in line with a modality agreed with the CCAC Secretariat. At minimum, a “methane roadmap” must:

• Identify methane mitigation pathways.
• Assess the cost of implementation.
• Assess the institutional arrangements for implementation.
• Develop a monitoring and evaluation framework for the methane mitigation pathways.

It may also include:
 

• Improvements to the national methane inventory
