V: all information provided subject to independent technical analysis and
review.
8. MRV in the 2015 agreement

• MRV requirements will build on the MRV framework in the existing regime
• Take into account lessons learned and experiences from the implementation of the
current MRV framework until 2020
⇒consolidated into a common, coherent international MRV
system for all Parties
Agreeing such rules up-front will provide greater clarity to countries on how ambitious
their commitments can be, promote transparency and trust in the international framework
and is a prerequisite to enable the use of market mechanisms to meet commitments.
⇒ Common accounting rules and MRV framework for all as a backbone of the
international mitigation architecture
• to enable tracking progress towards our below 2°C goal,
• ensure environmental integrity
• and avoid double counting.
10. Transparency is key
• Recognition of action
• Sharing of experience
• Sharing of expertise
• Learn from each other
• Build capacity
• Build trust
• Keep track on the 2 degree objective
• Support Parties own efforts in transforming their
economies onto a safe & SD low-carbon pathway
