Climate Focus is pleased to announce new analysis prepared with IUCN on increasing ambition and action on NDCs through forest landscape restoration (FLR). We conducted an in-depth analysis of the NDCs submitted by countries under the Paris Agreement to see how and where forest and land-based targets were identified. This timely analysis reveals opportunities where countries could increase their ambition through FLR.

This in-depth analysis serves as a source of analytical information based on countries’ political instruments, namely NDCs, for reflecting on current and potential climate ambition to contribute to achieving the Paris Agreement – including opportunities and challenges for climate action on the ground by engaging a broad range of actors from national and sub-national governments to the private sector.

The analysis is intended to trigger discussions on the opportunities to scale up climate action through FLR. It can also help identify remaining barriers for ramping up greater climate action.
