Papua New Guinea: Enhanced nationally determined contribution 2020
Papua New Guinea's (PNG) nationally determined contribution (NDC) sets out a comprehensive package of policies and measures, sectorial targets, and sector-specific actions that are tailored towards meeting defined contributions to addressing climate change through both immediate action and developing the enabling environment and technical capacity for an ongoing process of increased ambition. The document is, in compliance with the Enhanced Transparency Framework requirements as stipulated under the Paris Agreement. The contributions outlined in this NDC are all conditional.
Adaptation is a high priority due to the climate-related hazards that already pose significant risks to PNG today. PNG’s commitment to adaptation for 2020-2030 will focus on four priority development sectors of agriculture, health, transport, and infrastructure. The commitment here seeks to ensure a gender-responsive and human rights-based approach in all related planning, programming, and implementation.
