About National Carbon Monitoring Centre (NCMC)
The National Carbon Monitoring Centre was established in 2016 with the objective of building the national capacity to measure, verify and report adequately on carbon emissions at national and international level. It is a vehicle for reporting on carbon stocks and their changes as well as coordinating the national MRV-processes for the Government of Tanzania. The goal of the Centre is to enable Tanzania to actively participate and benefit from possible future international carbon trading mechanisms to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
