    The Nationally Determined Contribution Expert Tool (NEXT) is a greenhouse gas accounting tool developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to support annual environmental impact assessment for the Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use sector (AFOLU). It provides a 30-year time series of annual and cumulated estimates of carbon removal and greenhouse gas emission reductions from actions determined by Parties in their climate policies. NEXT was developed using the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) methodologies, and estimates can be made using either the IPCC 2006 guidelines or the IPCC 2019 refinement to the IPCC 2006 which are both complemented with the IPCC 2013 Wetlands Supplement. The tool was designed to provide results that directly respond to the provisions of the Enhanced Transparency Framework and support the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) development as required by the modalities, procedures and guidelines. NEXT provides a detailed temporal series of results and a wide set of indicators, including the social value of carbon, enabling a comprehensive environmental and economic overview of climate actions in achieving mitigation targets. The tool helps countries to interpret, track and scale up ambition of their NDCs which could ultimately inform the global stocktake of the Paris Agreement in a harmonized way.

    Helping Countries to Plan and Implement Climate Action in Agriculture through Improved Capacity and Knowledge - GCP/GLO/890/GER 2022

    The Paris Agreement constitutes a landmark achievement in the international response to climate change. Developed and developing countries alike committed in 2015 to doing their part in the transition to a low-emissions and climate-resilient future, as expressed in countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). Achieving the long-term climate goals of the Agreement, however, rests upon the enhanced institutional and technical capacity of developing countries to design, implement and track increasingly ambitious mitigation and adaption actions in the agriculture sectors. In the first round of NDCs, countries clearly referred to the need for enhanced capacities to engage stakeholders and facilitate inclusive planning and implementation processes, formulate new strategies, policies and laws, revise existing national policies and plans (including by mainstreaming climate change considerations), monitor and evaluate interventions and track GHG emissions and sinks, as well as adaptation needs and progress. Providing opportunities for exchange among decision-makers, technical experts and implementers can thereby contribute to laying the foundations for successful and ambitious interventions.

    Emissions Overview tool 2016
    Also available in:

    This user instruction guide provides detailed description of the Emissions Overview On-line Tool, which is part of the AFOLU Emissions Analysis Tools aimed at supporting Member Countries in improving their national capacity to address UNFCCC reporting requirements and to design climate policy actions (i.e. GHG Inventories, Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions – NAMAs – and Nationally Determined Contributions – NDCs) for the agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector. The Emissi ons Overview tool gives an overview of the emissions and trends in the AFOLU sector for one or more countries specified by the user. It also contextualizes the emissions within the respective region(s), continent(s), and the world. Such information can support countries in the preparation of NAMAs and NDCs.
