Climate Policy Programme Brazil II (PoMuC II)

As part of the German-Brazilian ‘Partnership for a socially just and ecological transformation’, the project supports ecological and socially just change through transformative climate governance in close cooperation with Brazilian partner ministries and institutions at federal and state level. This includes the translation of the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) into concrete sector targets and action plans. The focus is on strengthening political decision-makers. The project also supports the improved allocation of and access to financial resources to support climate initiatives. It serves as a platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience between different levels and sectors. Of particular importance is the thematic focus on energy transition, climate justice and biodiversity across the entire project.
