GIC-LAC regional workshop strengthens capacities for agriculture and land-use emissions reporting
How can Latin American countries demonstrate their commitment to climate action? Representatives from Mexico, Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador met in Guatemala City for the GIC-LAC Regional Workshop in 2025. Over three days, they shared experiences and developed strategies to improve how their country monitors and reports greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the agricultural and the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sectors.

These systems, known as MRV (for Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) systems, help countries collect reliable data about their climate actions. Clear and accurate information is essential for showing progress toward global climate goals under the Paris Agreement, where each country commits to limit global warming by reducing emissions and improving transparency.
