The purpose of this template is to explain how to use the GHG data repository tool and provides tables to develop a national GHG inventory schedule and track progress with completing each template in the series. This template helps the National GHG Inventory Coordinator (NIC) initiate and manage inventory planning and provides a table to record due dates for key compilation stages.

The Government of Tuvalu developed its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC)
and submitted it to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
in 2015 and ratified the Paris Agreement on 22 April 2016. When the Paris Agreement came
into force on 04 November 2016, Tuvalu’s INDC submitted in 2015 automatically became
Tuvalu’s First NDC.
