Relevant Context
Chile is highly vulnerable to Climate Change, with an increase in the frequency and magnitude of extreme events, such as droughts and floods expected. Adaptation has been identified as one of the main axis of Chile’s Climate Change strategy, so as to minimize the threats to its social and economic development.
Process for Developing NDC
- Precursors to the INDC include the National Climate Change Action Plan 2016-2021, which is currently being prepared with a cross-sectional integrated approach to mitigation, adaptation and capacity building, which aims at implementing actions and allocating mitigation responsibilities. - In the process of adaptation to Climate Change, it is key for all relevant players, particularly the sub-national governments and the citizens, to become involved (with a decentralized perspective and seeking to integrate efforts among the different decision-making levels (national, regional, and municipal).
Description of Monitoring and/or Implementation Mechanism
The National Forestry Corporation (CONAF) and the Forestry Institute (INFOR) are working on the corresponding Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) tools will be used to assess compliance with the commitments of the ‘Use of the land, change of use of the land and forestry’ (LULUCF) sector. Furthermore, the National Forestry Corporation (CONAF) is implementing the National Climate Change and Vegetation Resource Strategy.For the implementation of the lines of action described in the INDC, in addition to the national funds allocated for this effect, Chile will also seek international financing mechanisms.
Summary of Gender Reference
No mention of women or gender, but makes reference to the social consequences of climate change, stating they require a joint effort by the Government, the private sector and civil society, because it takes its deepest toll on the most vulnerable sectors of the population and is, thus, a factor which enhances social inequality. Therefore, it is important to adopt perspectives which allow to counteract such effects, including the protection and promotion of all the human rights potentially undermined by this phenomenon.
