Quality – Reporting & Fine-tuning Rio
Marker Definitions
Application of Rio markers
• Stocktake
• Status of reporting reviewed at each Task Team (RD4, RD9, RD14)
• Special reporting exercises for climate 2013 & 2014
Improvements in methodology/definitions
• Discussion on approach for revising the definitions
• Proposals developed for climate markers (RD5,10,15,15-REV, WP-STAT proposal)
New proposed definition on adaptation Rio
marker
It intends to reduce the vulnerability of human or natural systems to the current and
expected impacts of climate change, including increased climate variability, of current
climate variability and change , by maintaining or increasing adaptive capacity and resilience,
through increased ability to adapt to, or absorb, climate change stresses, shocks and
variability and/or by helping reduce exposure to them.
This encompasses a range of activities from information and knowledge generation, to
capacity development, planning and the implementation of climate change adaptation
actions.
a) the climate change adaptation objective is explicitly indicated in the activity
documentation; and
b) the activity contains specific measures targeting the definition above.
Quality – Fine-tuning Rio Marker Definitions
2015
• Revised climate change
marker proposal to WP-
STAT, 20th Nov
• Online indicative table..
• Additional supplementary
guidance?
Future considerations... Members:
• Continue improvements in quality of marking & reporting of OOF and disbursement data
Secretariat:
• Continued collaboration with MDBs
• Next steps for Biodiversity and Desertification markers...
• Marker quality reviews 2016/7?
Coverage – Multilateral data collection
Coverage of Multi data
• Collaboration with MDBs and other international organisations

• Biodiversity – initial data from GEF
• Process on track for adding funds to Annex 2 and pilots
• Conversations with MDBs on biodiversity, & GCF.
Imputed shares / attribution
• Imputed climate shares 2013-14 (for inflows)
• Application of TWG for attribution of MDB outflows in OECD-CPI Climate Finance report
Coverage – Multilateral data collection
2015
• Publication activity level
2014 data (climate by
COP)
Future considerations...
• Continued collaboration
with MDBs and
international
organisations to collect
data and estimate
imputed shares...
Use of data for reporting to Rio
Conventions
• Stocktake
• Exploration of evidence based and approaches
(RD8, PPT17)

field to collect information
on reporting to Rio
conventions – for
transparency...
