Description:
Tenders are invited for Consultancy to Obtain Institutional Research Bureau (IRB) Approval and Certification of Field Data Collection Tools. In Uganda, the systems for measuring and monitoring changes in livestock GHG emissions are under-developed despite the growing importance of inventories and the increase in countries- ambitions to undertake mitigation action in the agriculture sector. Uganda is yet to acquire an efficient and robust Data Management and Emissions Inventory system to monitor livestock Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions at national level, thus the accuracy of reporting data on livestock derived emissions is still severely limited. There is need for more accurate and robust information on livestock GHG emissions and productivity. SIRGE with funding from the European Union seeks to contribute to the climate relevant, productive and sustainable transformation of agricultural and food systems in Uganda. The SIRGE consortium partners (ACTED, MWE-CCD, ATTA, APRI Global, ESIPPS, Punta360, and NALIRRI) will collect data and generate information that will contribute to improving the accuracy of livestock emissions accounting; informing national climate change mitigation and adaption policies; climate-smart interventions; environmental conservation actions; and Uganda-s National reporting processes to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The action will be undertaken in the Mbarara and Nakasongola livestock corridor districts of Uganda.
