Promoting low-carbon and climate resilient development pathways for Argentina (ProCLIM-AR)

Argentina has increased its ambition to combat climate change. Support is needed to achieve a low-carbon and climate-resilient transformation. The project is supporting Argentina to improve its policy framework and strengthening capacities of different actors towards the transition of a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy in key sectors. This will be done by implementing FLR-plans to improve and restore the ecological functionality and productive capacity of forest landscapes. The projects implements measures improving frameworks for sustainable consumption and production through resource efficiency in the construction and metal industries. It also implements adaptation and mitigation measures in the transport sector, strengthens the climate policy framework and is improving access to climate finance.
