Papua New Guinea: Forestry and climate change framework for action 2009-2015
This framework runs from 2009-2015 and is consistent with the timeframes of the PNG’s Medium-Term Development Strategy (MTDS) and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), Kyoto Protocol, the Johannesburg Plan of Implementation and the subsequent work program of the UN Commission on Sustainable Development. It outlines PNG's aims, guiding principles, implementation strategy and monitoring framework for forestry and tackling climate change.
The framework is intended to promote links with, but in no way supersede national and provincial instruments and plans across specific sectors that link to weather and climate including water, agriculture, energy, fisheries, mining and petroleum, land use, health, coastal zone management, forest soil management, marine ecosystems, ocean management, tourism and transport.
