Timeframe 

2021-2030

Relevant context 

Benin is a developing country whose economy relies heavily on agriculture, trade and transport with neighboring countries; justifying the high values ​​of GHG emissions estimated for agriculture and transport relative to other sectors.

Process for developing NDC 

INDC is part of the National Poverty Reduction and Climate Change Management Program. It was developed through a participatory and inclusive process that involved various stakeholders (public institutions, private sector, civil society).

Description of Monitoring and/or Implementation Mechanism 

In its National Programme for Climate Change Management, Benin has developed a level of organization monitoring and vulnerability assessment and adaptation to climate change to provide the program with a national piloting committee, a committee of departmental and communal orientation and cross-sectoral technical committees, to provide general guidance, monitor the climate vulnerability and actions on adaptation / mitigation to climate change.
