 Good morning to you all. Let me at the outset, please place my gratitude to the IIMD for offering me this opportunity to share with you Sudan's experience in reporting under the UNF Table C and Paris Agreement. Well, Sudan participated in the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development which is also known as Rio Air Summit in 1992 and was among the first countries that signed the UNF Table C in 1992 and ratified it in 1994. Sudan had also signed Kyoto Protocol in 1997. We had also signed the newly adopted Paris Agreement in 2016. Sudan is active member in the UNF Table C negotiation process and had members in different constituted bodies and committees under the UNF Table C, IPCC and Paris Agreement like the WIM, the LEG, the CGE and IPCC-BO as well. Sudan is very committed towards the compliance with the UNF Table C. In 1995 we received the fund from the Global Environmental Facility, the Jeff, to start preparing our fairest national communication and hence the national communications is an enabling activity. It was prepared in a highly participatory approach so we intended to to involve as much as experts we can in this process. So more than 300 national experts representing 50 related institutions had participated in the preparation of the fairest and second national communication as well. First national communication was submitted in 2003 and the second national communication in 2013. We had started preparing our third national communication in 2016 and the fairest biennial update report in 2019 the last year we started and is expected to be submitted together to the UNF Table C secretariat in 2021 after the government endorsement. Okay, in terms of reporting under the UNF Table C as I said in my previous slide the fairest and second national communications were prepared and submitted in 2003 and 2030 respectively. Then we prepared our national adaptation program of action the NAPA in 2007 and was followed by preparation of national adaptation plan the NAPA in 2013. We were also among the fairest countries who had prepared the technology needs assessment the TNA for both adaptation and mitigation and it included also the technology action plan and project ideas as well. We submit the TNAs in 2013 the national appropriate mitigation action the NAPA was also prepared and submitted in 2013. We had also prepared our intended national retirement contributions the IMDCs in 2015 and currently reporting of reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation the red plus activities are also going on as one of the reporting under the UNF Table C. So the national communications reports are considered as if I may say a multifaceted force it's not only about the compliance to the UNF Table C but also one of the most important tools for bringing the climate change on sense to the attention of policymakers at the national level. It also considered as a library for providing a wealth of information for scientists and researchers and for academic purposes as well because this is the only document that you can find information regarding the greenhouse gas emissions from different sectors in the country you can also find the mitigation options and strategies for these on how to reduce these emissions from different sectors so it's a multi-purpose document. Of course we encountered a lot of gaps and challenges in preparing our fairest and second and also third national communication. For example the lack of some activity data especially needed to conduct the GHG inventory accompanied with the difficulties in using of the 2006 IPCC software and we find that it's difficult to be used in our circumstances because for example in the software one of the drop-down boxes you will find that the highest temperature for the livestock is 28 while here in Sudan sometimes the temperature might reach 48 yeah so it's not it doesn't suit our national circumstances and this is of course is a challenge and currently we are thinking to develop our own software that that should our national circumstances and that the needs. We also suffering from discontinuity of the national team because after they get trained they might quit they might be moved to another institution and this is of course considered as crucial to our national communication. Sometimes also dispute might occur between the national climate change focal points and the national communication coordinator because in most cases the UNFT will see focal person is not the coordinator for the national communication and this might lead to some sort of dispute if I may see. Regarding the lesson learned I can summarize it in four main points establishing national formal arrangement as the appropriate may clarify sectoral rules and enhance the coordination between the involved institutions and may also facilitate the regular data collection and review or approval process for the data. Choosing and manipulating an appropriate national greenhouse gas inventory coordinating body and of course the location within the government of the national DHB inventory coordinating body is a key factor influencing the effectiveness of institutional arrangement and in particular the strength of its mandate and ability to conduct interministerial coordination. The third point is the stakeholder involvement engaging a broad range of stakeholders is very important for the process. It is important that clear roles, responsibilities, schedules and outputs are defined early to ensure multi stakeholder process produce effective results and provide necessary inputs to compile the inventory and support other analysis in the report and throughout our preparation of national communications we had engaged many government institutions, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions, the sales center and even the private sector to access the expertise facilitate data collection of relevant information and with capacities and raise awareness of reporting activities beyond the government entities. As I said in my previous slide more than 50 different institutions were involved in the preparation of national communication before and the last point is the in-country institutional and technical capacity building and some developing countries as you're all aware have often relied on consultants and external experts to assess them in preparing inventories and this can hinder the institutional knowledge and capacity gains of course. We have managed to develop our national capacity which helps to avoid reliance in external expertise, improve institutional thereby enhancing the country ownership of the process. Regarding the commitment and the Paris Agreement and to prepare ourselves for reporting under the Paris Agreement we in Sudan are about to receive funds to prepare for the capacity building initiative on transparency in the CBIT which will aim to strengthen our institutional and technical capacities to meet enhanced transparency requirements and that the Paris Agreement and improve it and improve it over time. The CBIT project will be considered as an opportunity to provide relevant tools, training and assistance for meeting the provisions of the enhanced transparency permit of Article 13. The expected output of the CBIT process will be developing in a institutional arrangement for climate transparency, achieving public awareness and capacity building of national experts, enhancing the greenhouse gas inventories and mitigation options and development of robust domestic MRB and monitoring and evaluation systems as well. And finally achieving progress on tracking the NDC implementation and transparency and as you know the NDC is the core theme of Paris Agreement. And by saying this I have reached to the end of my presentation and I remain for further questions and inquiries and thank you so much for your kind attention.
