Technical assessment and survey missions

(Agenda item 4)

Assessing adaptation strategies and technologies

. To take note with appreciation of the reports of the Scientific, Environmental Effects and Technology and Economic Assessment Panels and the Technical Options Committees

This is currently the subject of detailed technical evaluation (see annex I, paras. 62 68).

To request the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel to

The Technology and Economic Assessment Panel study is still under preparation.

The information technology risk assessment is approaching completion.

Noting that CTI aims to foster rapid development of climate technologies, he stressed that TNA needs to be followed up and implemented.

Needs for technologies for adaptation and TNA studies

However, they make the technical assessments upon which decisions will be based.

To note with appreciation the assessment carried out by the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel and its Medical Technical Options Committee

What would our ancestors 10,000 years ago have said if they really had technology assessment?

The secretariat continued to follow closely the activities of the Land Degradation Assessment in the Drylands (LADA) and the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA), including participation in meetings of the Technical Advisory Group of LADA, and the Executive Committee and Board of the MA.

1. Assessment of the current trade situation

The board of directors of the listed company shall give explicit opinions regarding the independence of the evaluation organ, the rationality of the evaluation assumptions, the correlation between the evaluation methods and the evaluation purpose, and the fairness of the evaluated price.

The technology review and assessment will identify the technology necessary to implement the system.

Assessing technology transfer activities procedures for identifying and evaluating the impacts and effectiveness of technologies that have been transferred from one Party to another

The Technology and Assessment panel was also requested to do its utmost to provide its reports approximately seven months prior to Meetings of the Parties.

Technology and Economic Assessment Panel administrative issues

(e) Technology and Economic Assessment Panel administrative issues (I propose that we focus only on the TOC Co Chairs issue as below)

Takes stock of improvements in information and communications technology management within the Department.

(c) Provide a technical assessment of progress in implementation of the Convention and

The assessment mission to Haiti in March 2004

The methodology was expected to be ready by the end of 1997, and the first wave of countries could undergo the exercise at the beginning of 1998.

Iraq also states that while vegetation loss was evident between 1990 and 1992, there was considerable recovery between 1992 and 2001, to the extent that the vegetation cover in 2001 was as good as or better than before the conflict.

He pointed out that conducting a TNA for technologies for adaptation is more complex and challenging than for mitigation technologies and highlighted several key aspects in the identification of technology needs for adaptation.

This would, in its turn, allow banks and other lenders to better assess enterprise risks using modern ICT based techniques for credit risk assessment and credit scoring.

Assessing mitigation and adaptation technologies methods for evaluating different technologies by determining, for example, performance, costs, and environmental impacts over time Parties may wish to refer to document FCC SBSTA 1996 4 for a definition of technology.

The Board followed up on its previous recommendations on timely submission and review of procurement plans.

Monitoring, assessment and reporting, and concepts, terminology and definitions

Current technological developments for the assessment of illicit crops still rely heavily on ground data, and ground surveys will therefore continue to be the main basis for illicit cultivation assessments in the short and medium term.

In addition to the need for a classification framework, there is the more difficult matter of technology evaluation and assessment.

(iii) Evaluations coordination and management of the evaluation of programmes and projects, including the preparation of the annual evaluation report, subprogramme evaluations and project evaluations.

He asked the Technology and Economic Assessment Panel to reconsider their nomination.

The board of directors of the listed company shall give independent opinions regarding the independence of the evaluation organ, the rationality of the evaluation assumptions and the fairness of the evaluated price.

The ISO 14000 series also comprises standards for environmental labelling, environmental performance evaluation, life cycle assessment, and the related terms and definitions.

Features of the Assessment of Assessments

Aims of the Assessment of Assessments

First, an assessment will need to be made of the existing situation.

Regarding the nominations in the unable to assess category, MBTOC and TEAP were pursuing bilateral discussions with the nominating Parties in order to try and clarify some of the issues.

The preliminary analysis showed that information from TNAs is already available and that several countries have developed capacity to identify their needs for technologies.
