Legacy Project
Climate Pathways Project
Funder: Norway Ministry of the Environment International Climate and Forest Initiative
Project Timeline: May 5, 2019 - March 31, 2021
Countries: Brazil, Mexico and Argentina
Program Area: Ecosystem Services
Around the world, governments are working toward a more climate-friendly future by developing strategies to lower greenhouse gas emissions. Winrock and its partners are helping jurisdictions in the Under2 coalition in Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Argentina to develop long-term ‘decarbonization pathways’ that promote continued socioeconomic growth. At the same time, these pathways promote the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions across all economic sectors, including agriculture, forestry and other land uses (AFOLU). The project will also identify and address gaps in measuring, reporting and verification (MRV) to enhance the ability of these subnational jurisdictions to monitor progress toward emission reduction goals, while working with country ministries and institutions to identify investment mechanisms and financing options.
