Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) towards the achievement of the global goal of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) by the Republic of Tajikistan.

This Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) is a nationwide sectoral document, developed under the UNFCCC, aiming at reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and thus enabling the country to take the path towards sustainable “green” development which is consistent with the Convention’s goal, to prevent global warming of more than 2°С. The document includes both mitigation and adaptation measures covering basic spheres of the economic activity, such as power industry and water resources, industry and construction, land use, agriculture, gardening, and grazing, forestry and biodiversity, and transportation and infrastructure.
To make agriculture and forestry more productive and sustainable, main actions regard (i) agriculture, forestry and water resources management; (ii) systematic reforestation; and (iii) development of the green infrastructure in the sector.
In order to increase the resilience of livelihoods to disasters, the INDC envisages (i) promotion of adaptation of globally significant biological species and natural ecosystems to climate change; (ii) monitoring and preservation of the glaciers and water resources in the runoff formation zones under the conditions of climate warming; (iii) improvement of occupational safety, life-sustaining activity and health of the population, maternity and childhood protection in the context of climate warming; and (iv) promotion of an active role of women and civil society on the issues of climate change and disaster risk reduction.
The document indicates two different intervention programs, depending on substantial international funding and technology transfer.
