Kyrgyzstan: Updated nationally determined contribution 2021
The updated Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) of the Kyrgyz Republic represents its plan to fight climate change and its contribution to the global effort to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It indicates directions for a low-carbon transformation untill 2030, with consideration given to national priorities and the Sustainable Development Goals. The Kyrgyz Republic recognizes the importance of the adoption of the Low-Carbon Development Strategy and the National Adaptation Policy.
The commitment and ambition of actions in the field of adaptation to climate change while updating the NDC is underlined by the process of updating the National Adaptation Planning (NAP) in the Kyrgyz Republic. The NDC contains a list of adaptation measures that will reduce the economic losses identified by NDC1 and covers all the most vulnerable sectors: water resources, agriculture, energy, emergencies, public health, forestry and biodiversity, as well as new intersectoral sections “Climate Resilient Areas and Green Cities” and “Improving the Adaptation Reporting System”.
