The Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) Tracking Tool user manual emphasizes the context behind developing the NDC Tracking Tool, its structure, methodological approach, and step-by-step guidance on how to install and use the tool.

This Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Nationally Determined Contributions Tracking Tool is an Excel-based, easy-to-use tool, which is designed to facilitate countries in collecting the information required to track progress made in implementing and achieving their NDCs. Based on the information available in each country, the tool allows to assess the progress on NDC implementation by (i) comparing planned versus implemented mitigation and adaptation actions, and (ii) estimating the GHG reduction achieved from the implementation of mitigation actions compared against the sectoral and/or national baseline and NDC target scenario. The tool is designed to support governments, national experts, and practitioners involved in the preparation, implementation, updating, revision, and reporting of all sectors covered by the NDC.
