2.8. Key Topic 8: Monitoring, reporting and evaluation

KEY MESSAGES

  • Five countries are currently implementing a monitoring scheme, a reporting scheme or an evaluation scheme (MRE): Denmark, Finland, France, Lithuania and the UK. Eight additional countries are working on MRE schemes and 12 are planning to do so in the future.
  • Countries reported that they are considering monitoring, reporting and evaluation schemes for a range of different purposes. These vary from evaluating the preparedness of a country to evaluating a specific policy measure.
  • Countries are using a variety of approaches for their MRE schemes, for example, a review by an independent body and self-assessment by actors in different sectors.
  • Ten countries out of 22 reported that they have already developed, or are developing indicators on climate impacts, risks and adaptation. There are many challenges when developing indicators such as the long time frames and the availability of data.
