Project description

The Global Factor team supported the incorporation of climate change into Suriname’s National Development Plan, with the aim of facilitating inclusive and transparent evidence-based decision-making. The project covered different sectors, such as agriculture, energy, infrastructure, water resources, among others.

To this end, the project included climate risk studies, the definition of climate change adaptation measures to reduce vulnerability in the priority areas of intervention, institutional strengthening programmes and the proposal of specific projects for subsequent financing. All of this was carried out with different public participation processes that favored the validation and appropriation of the project results by the competent authorities.
