To prepare and submit The Sultanate of Oman's Second National Communication and first Biennial Update Report (BUR 1) to UNFCCC and in doing so enhance Oman's capacity to meet its reporting obligations under the UNFCCC on a continuous basis.

In response to outcomes of COP 15 of UNCCD, decisions 9 and 11 of COP15, this project aims to support eligible countries to utilize GEF resources for implementing the Convention and the UNCCD Strategy (2018-2030), which is a comprehensive global commitment to avoid and reduce desertification and land degradation and to restore the productivity of degraded land to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN). The project will support Parties to enhance their national-level institutions and technical capacities for effective and timely preparation and submission of the 2026 UNCCD national reports. To achieve this, the project will offer technical support to the UNCCD National Focal Points, equipping them with the technical tools to collect data and submit national reports through the Performance Review and Assessment of Implementation System (PRAIS) reporting tool.

Facilitate the implementation of the Stockholm Convention in participating countries through the review and update of the NIPs and submission to the Conference of the Parties (COP) of the Convention.
