The Program supports implementation of the GoB-led national climate objectives as articulated in the National Adaptation Plan (NAP), 2023-2050 and the Nationally Determined Contributions 2021 update (NDC-U) by strengthening the intergovernmental policy and institutional framework, mobilizing climate finance, and mainstreaming gender equality and social inclusion (GESI). The Program will include three policy Reform Areas (RAs): (i) enabling environment for climate change actions; (ii) reinforcing climate change adaptation actions; and (iii) accelerating climate change mitigation actions to address some of the critical binding constraints.
