Uzbekistan: Updated nationally determined contribution
This updated nationally determined contribution (NDC) outlines the increased obligations the Republic of Uzbekistan intends to undertake, from reducing specific greenhouse gas emissions per unit of GDP to increasing the climate resilience of agriculture and the rational use of water and land resources without jeopardizing the stable functioning of vital ecosystems and their services.
Uzbekistan's adaptation measures cover a wide range of actions to protect communities from the adverse impacts of climate change, such as extreme droughts and hydrometeorological hazards associated with global air temperature change; enhancing the resilience of strategic infrastructure and ecosystems for the conservation of agro- and biodiversity; and reducing the harmful impact of the Aral Sea disaster.
