Sierra Leone is soliciting both technical and financial support to undertake the preparation of the country Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Action (NAMA). The NAMA preparation and implementation process has the potential to strengthen national institutional capacity and transfer knowledge to sectoral institutions. As progress is tracked towards reducing our emissions over time, the capacity of technical staff will increase and a foundation will be built for tracking progress of our emission cut through different climate change interventions. Also developing the country NAMA can enable countries to link climate change to other national priorities, such as sustainable development and poverty reduction. It can also help countries coordinate among sectors and allow decision makers to identify synergies among sectoral plans for the overall reduction of their carbon foot prints over time without compromising development aspiration.
