Towards development, execution of inclusive, participatory
10 and ambitious NDCs in Tanzania
IN 2015 196 Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) signed the Paris Agreement and set the world on course towards sustainable development.
NDCs must address energy poverty and promote renewable energy.
The Agreement created a platform for the Parties to set long term goals to reducegreenhouse gas emissions through Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) which require parties to outline domestic mitigation measures, with the aim of achieving the objectives of such contributions.
NDCs are non-binding national plans that highlight climate actions including targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, policies and measures governments aim to implement in response to climate change and as a contribution to achieve the global targets set out in the Paris Agreement.
