The challenge was to create an updated Greenhouse Gas (GHG) inventory for Uganda building on existing studies and building capacity with the Ugandan experts that will update the Inventory going forward. The project was funded by Conservation International, an American based NGO. Due to the timing with COVID-19, the training sessions were adapted for online delivery working in conjunction with Nexus International University. Stakeholder engagement was a key deliverable for this project. The project entailed working with an international expert in the methodology, the engagement of all relevant stakeholders in the country and conducting a series of online training sessions and workshops. The updated inventory will be utilised by the Uganda Ministry of Water and Environment to track GHG emissions from all the IPCC sectors such as agriculture, forestry, industry, waste, energy and transportation. Completion certificates were issued to 48 attendees by the University and the international expert. An additional 33 attendees participated in some or all of the workshops and training sessions.
