Lebanon’s Climate Change Transparency Journey
April 15, 2026
Lebanon’s Climate Change Transparency Journey presents a comprehensive overview of the country’s efforts to strengthen its climate transparency framework in line with the Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF) under the Paris Agreement. The report outlines Lebanon’s current transparency baseline, including its greenhouse gas inventory, climate policies, institutional arrangements, and reporting practices. It further proposes enhanced institutional structures and systems to improve data collection, monitoring, reporting, and verification processes.
The document introduces a set of national and sectoral indicators to track progress towards the implementation of Lebanon’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), while emphasizing a continuous, cyclical approach to improving transparency. By identifying existing gaps, capacity needs, and opportunities for institutional strengthening, the report supports informed decision-making, increased accountability, and alignment with international climate reporting obligations. Ultimately, it positions transparency as a key enabler for climate action, ambition, and access to climate finance.
