• Overview

When: 3-4 October 2024

Location: Bogotá, Colombia (Universidad Nacional de Colombia)

This workshop, organized by UNEP’s IMEO, will facilitate discussion of methane measurement techniques applicable in Colombia to support the design of an IMEO "Baseline Study" by the Universidad Nacional de Colombia.

IMEO's multi-sector Baseline Studies aim to provide comprehensive overviews of methane emissions and blueprint methodologies that will bridge scientific and regional knowledge gaps. The baseline study in Colombia is the first campaign of its kind in Latin America and will significantly increase information on methane emissions across all sectors. 

The international event will gather key stakeholders from industry, policy, and science communities, to facilitate impactful discussions on policies, measures and standards, and discuss opportunities to use this data to drive deep reductions in methane emissions.

UN Environment Programme's IMEO exists to provide the world with open, reliable, and actionable data to address methane emissions. Enhancing the use of credible data and scientific measurement is essential to drive mitigation and climate progress.
