Côte d'Ivoire ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) on November 14, 1994, thereby pledging to contribute to global climate protection in the interests of present and future generations. It also joined the Kyoto Protocol (KP) on December 28, 2005. In its efforts to meet its commitments under the UNFCCC, Côte d'Ivoire periodically prepares its Communications and Biennial Update Reports (BURs) on the status of UNFCCC implementation in the country (GHG inventory, mitigation and adaptation measures, related projects, etc.). According to the results of the self-assessment, the UNFCCC implementation process in Côte d'Ivoire suffers from a number of shortcomings, the main one being the low level of involvement of certain key players, due to ignorance of their roles in the process and the usefulness of the information they hold, as a result of financial, technical and communication shortcomings.
