From building the resilience of communities to combat risks from climate change to disaster risk reduction, strengthening disaster-resilient construction practices and water security, UNDP Bhutan supports projects that promote sustainable land management, and climate-smart agriculture and help build sustainable livelihoods for local communities.
Helping Bhutan maintain its carbon-neutral goal is another priority. Through its projects, UNDP promotes inclusive, gender-responsive climate actions, low-emission transportation, and sustainable waste management practices.
We focus on building community and landscape resilience to the impact of climate change by ensuring access to water and promoting climate-resilient farming practices. We help build the capacity of stakeholders on climate change adaptation and prioritize medium to long-term adaptation plans in agriculture, biodiversity, and health sectors through National Adaptation Plan.
We help Bhutan maintain its carbon-neutral ambition through an enhanced Second Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) with clear GHG emission reduction targets in the agriculture, transport, human settlement, and industry sectors. Through its projects, UNDP promotes inclusive, gender-responsive climate actions and sustainable waste management practices. We are supporting Bhutan’s efforts to transition to low-emission urban transport by promoting electric vehicles and tap into alternate renewable sources and exploring sustainable climate financing.
