Analysis of Original NDC

Timeframe

Now until 2030

Relevant context

Developing country with high vulnerability to climate change.

Process for developing NDC

NDC is the outcome of a concerted effort and wide consultative process of all stakeholders and technical experts involved in issues related to climate change. Eritrea undertook a broad stakeholders representation and consultation process. This allowed for the baseline assessment, and review of policies and programmes that are being implemented by the government.

Description of Monitoring and/or Implementation Mechanism

The Ministry of Land, Water and Environment has the full responsibility to monitor and evaluate the implementation of NDC through regular stakeholders consultative engagement. This will ensure the effective updating and implementation of both mitigation and adaptation plans.

Other concepts mentioned

Human rights

Summary of gender reference

Eritrea is committed to gender equity and social justice (GB). 30% of the National Assembly is composed of women (in summary section).

In relation to capacity building, notes that ‘it is fundamental to incorporate gender issues into capacity building (B), the most vulnerable sectors and regions in order to reduce social inequality and the gap between women and men rights.’
