Welcome to National Capacity Self-Assessment of Global Environmental Management Website

The overall aim of National Capacity Self-Assessment (NCSA) is to provide Bangladesh with the opportunity to identify priority capacity needs in order to effectively address crosscutting global environmental issues. This enabling activity is to conduct a country driven self-assessment and develop a strategy and action plan for capacity building in the environmental sector of the country. This project will enable the country to develop a plan of action to achieve global environmental management objectives in the context of the three Conventions relevant for NCSA: the Convention on Biological Diversity, the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change and United Nations Conventions for Combat to Desertification. The focus of this project is to capture the concerns related to critical capacity constraints for implementing the Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs); formulate strategic plan how to develop national capacity for thematic issues as well as issues that cut across focal areas; increase awareness on various issues with regard to national capacity for the MEAs; and link past and ongoing activities for the MEAs with overall national development policies.
