Montenegro joined the United Nations Convention (UNFCCC) through succession, in 2006, and on 27 Janu- ary 2007 it became the full Convention member as a non-Annex 1 country. Also, Montenegro ratified the Kyoto Protocol on 27 March 2007 and on 2 September 2007 became non-Annex B member of the Protocol, which means that it still does not have quantified requirements for reduction of GHG emissions. As a party to the Convention, Montenegro is required, among other things, to produce, update and publish reports on the national greenhouse gases inventory, in line with the agreed methodology, as well as a report on vulnerability of natural resources and economy caused by climate change. Fulfilling its commitments, Mon- tenegro adopted and delivered the Initial National Communication on Climate Change to UNFCCC Secretariat in May 2010. Reporting to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is primarily an interna- tional commitment of Montenegro, shared by all parties to the international agreement. However, the process of producing the communication can be observed also from the aspect of European integration in the field of climate change, as it actually represents a significant part of necessary capacity building in this field as well as of necessary synergy of key sectors, which is a prerequisite for alignment of the national policy with ambitious EU goals. This communication is the Second National Communication on Climate Change of Montenegro to UNFCCC and has been produced also with the support from GEF. The purpose of this report is to update and supplement information provided in the Initial National Communication on Climate Change to UNFCCC, and particularly chapters on national circumstances, national GHG inventory, policies and measures for climate change mitiga- tion, vulnerability to climate change and steps taken to adapt to climate change impact, including information that should contribute to raising public awareness on climate change and information related to education, training, research and development in this field and other relevant data. Preparation of the Second National Communication on Climate Change to UNFCCC has contributed to the strengthening of capacities within Montenegrin institutions for preparation of future communications as well as to the decision-making process in the course of preparation and adoption of policies and measures, not only in the environment sector, but also in other relevant sectors, such as energy, transport, industry, tourism, agriculture, water management, forestry and waste management. We would like to emphasize that the general public was consulted, numerous local experts participated, a team of scientists from the University of Montenegro was involved, consultations with relevant institutions were held and a public debate was organised in preparation of this complex document. By fulfilling the commitment of reporting to the key international agreement in the field of climate change, Montenegro is a step closer to definition of the specific climate policy with a clear vision of possibility to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.

Photo: TRC In brief Programme outcome The Europe Zone Office is guided in its work with Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies by the principle aims of Strategy 2020 to save lives, protect livelihoods, and strengthen recovery from disasters and crises; enable healthy and safe living; and promote social inclusion and a culture of non-violence and peace. The capacity-building efforts are in line with Enabling Action One to build strong National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. Programme summary The year of 2011 in the Europe Zone was marked by the ongoing economic crisis and financial instability that has, on the one hand, increased pressure on the humanitarian situation by an increasing vulnerability of the affected populations, and has, on the other hand, led to decreasing funding by the traditional donors. The economic and financial situation is still unclear following the reporting period, and the same issues will continue into the year of 2012 as well. Pressing issues such as demographic changes, the ageing population, climate change and disasters were adding to the difficulties of funding. Special emphasis was put on strengthening domestic fundraising and resource mobilisation capacities of the National Societies through trainings and better communication. A new Federation-wide planning and fundraising tool, the Long Term Planning Framework (LTPF) was introduced in the autumn of 2011, and the first LTPFs have been adopted for the period 2012-2015 both at the Zone level and at the level of the Regional and Country Representations.
