This is the third document in a series of case studies by member countries of the Thematic Working Group on Agriculture, Food Security and Land Use (TWG), under the NDC-Partnership. The aim is to present what countries are doing to tackle climate change and implement their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). This case study examines the importance of transparency in the implementation and monitoring of Nationally Determined Contributions and how improved monitoring and reporting systems are key to better address climate change impacts on the AFOLU sector. Practical examples are presented from the CBIT-AFOLU project in Mongolia led by FAO, which started in early 2019 and is expected to run until 2022.

This publication provides a comprehensive analysis of mitigation and adaptation actions for agrifood systems in the nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of Europe and Central Asia, focusing on progress since the latest NDC Policy Analysis Report from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in 2021. As the third report in the FAO series “Policy analysis of nationally determined contributions in Europe and Central Asia,” it updates the region’s advancement toward climate commitments outlined in the NDCs. The report also shares information on national policies and legislative frameworks, aiming to support the revision and submission of updated NDCs anticipated in 2025.The report offers an update on GHG emissions for each country, spotlighting the highest-emitting categories within the agricultural sector. It highlights recent developments in national climate change mitigation (CCM) priorities, policies and legal frameworks, showcasing how countries are adapting to meet their commitments. It also thoroughly analyzes the integration of adaptation measures, especially those related to agriculture, into NDCs, and assesses the prioritization of adaptation in sectoral policies, the progress in developing NDCs, and the availability of climate finance to support these initiatives.The publication also assesses the countries’ existing national policies and strategies, Long-term Low Emission Development Strategies, National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) and other documents.In this report, the focus is on capturing efforts and progress made by countries in addressing the challenges posed by climate change in the context of agriculture and broader agrifood systems.
