Botswana

Analysis of Original NDC

Timeframe 

2030

Relevant context 

Semi-arid country vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.

Process for developing NDC 

No mention of process for developing INDC, although development of National Adaptation Plan "calls for broader stakeholder consultation so that the products of this process represent the views and aspirations of all the stakeholders and respond to their needs. The outcome of this process will be significant in guiding how the country responds to the development challenges across all sectors that are attributed to global warming and climate change."

Description of Monitoring and/or Implementation Mechanism 

Botswana is developing a Climate Change Policy and Institutional Framework which will be supported by a Strategy and Action Plan to operationalize the Policy. The Policy will be approved by Parliament in 2016. In addition to the national policy, the development of a strategy will involve development of a long term low carbon strategy, a national adaptation plan, nationally appropriate mitigation actions, identification of technologies, plan for knowledge management capacity development, education and public awareness and a financial mechanism. This total package will ensure that the policy is implementable.
