Promoting Nation/Corporate/Facility Level Transparency for Climate Change Mitigation

Organizer : Ministry of Environment, Japan (MOEJ)

Co-organizer : Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)・Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI)・Overseas Environmental Cooperation Center, Japan (OECC)

Abstract

The urgent challenges in climate mitigation are apparent. Achieving the Paris Agreement target hinges on submitting biennial transparency reports (BTRs) and updating and implementing national contributions (NDCs), with private sector engagement being vital. Companies are adopting Net-Zero goals and transparency measures driven by regulations and voluntary efforts to enhance resilience. While the private sector faces increasing pressure to measure and reduce GHG emissions, some use international standards promoting transparency in supply chains and GHG reporting system implemented in certain nations. However, tracking progress remains difficult even for countries submitting biennial transparency reports (BTR), stressing a need for sustained capacity building . Recognizing these needs, MOEJ has been supporting developing countries in promoting corporate and facility GHG reporting through SITA and PaSTI initiatives. This seminar will showcase successful initiatives promoting transparency at facility, corporate, and nation levels, and explore how better coordination and data harmonization across these levels can accelerate progress toward global climate goals.
