In Latin America and the Caribbean, mitigation measures not only contribute to the reduction of global emissions but also build a solid foundation for sustainable development, fostering resilience and preparing the region to address emerging climate challenges.
Climate action works closely with governments, international organizations, the private sector, and civil society in mobilizing financial and technological resources to develop and support mitigation initiatives. It facilitates the transfer of clean technologies and provides technical assistance to strengthen local capacities in implementing effective measures.
