National climate change policy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan 2022-2050

The 2022 - 2050 Climate Change Policy (CCP) is an overarching document for mainstreaming climate change in all sectoral policies, strategies, and action plans. It serves to provide strategic orientations for Jordan to build an ambitious low-carbon and climate resilient society, while also supporting the implementation of UNFCCC provisions. In summary, all sectors will be called upon to use the CCP 2022 - 2050 as the framing document to mainstream climate change in their long-term strategic plans, which in turn will be used to inform updates to the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).

The framing of the different sections of the Climate Change Policy 2022-2050 has been done to address the sectoral policies and actions for adaptation and mitigation, to articulate the enabling factors and to make the assumptions explicit. In addition, the framing has been aligned with the requirements of the Paris Agreement that will operationalize the UNFCCC up to 2030.
