Analysis of Updated NDC

Bolivia's contribution articulates in two periods in an integrated manner. The first is linked to the 2015-2020 period, in the understanding that all countries should undertake ambitious efforts now in order to achieve ambitious reduction in increase of global temperature (in the water, energy, forests and agriculture sectors). The second is related to the 2021-2030 scenario.

Relevant context

Bolivia is a developing country that has prioritized a linkage of mitigation and adaptation actions in complementary with the holistic development in the areas of water, energy, forests and agriculture as part of its 2025 Patriotic Agenda, and national development plans consistent with the construction of a "Living Well" program.

Process for developing NDC

not specified, although main policy framework (Horizon 2010-2030) was developed after extensive stakeholder consultation inclusive of all political parties.
