About the webinar
The countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, as signatories of the Paris Agreement, have adopted commitments to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. Meeting the targets established in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) requires significant changes in the development patterns of important sectors, such as energy, transportation, agriculture, among others, which in turn implies sectoral commitments to reduce emissions.
In this webinar we will present the results of studies by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), on the expected gaps in compliance with the NDCs of the countries of the region taking into account the current course of action, and the need to increase efforts in some sectors. Uruguay's experience in the search for agreements on sectoral targets for the fulfillment of its climate commitments will also be presented. The webinar will be held at Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the LEDS LAC Platform Secretariat: info@ledslac.org.
