NAMAs in the sector
Country | Type of action | Objective | |
---|---|---|---|
Sustainable charcoal NAMA | Cambodia | Strategy/Policy | The objective of the NAMA is to leverage private sector investment in sustainable charcoal production and solid biomass fuels, support forest restoration, and support the conversion of existing producers to sustainable practices |
Forestry NAMA | Chile | Strategy/Policy | This NAMA aims to advance the implementation of the country's Platform for the Generation and Trading of Forest Carbon Credits (PBCCh). |
Low Carbon Climate Resilient Development Strategy in Dominica | Dominica | Strategy/Policy | Support the implementation of the Low Carbon Climate Resilient Development Strategy |
Blue Carbon NAMA Conserve and Restore Mangroves in the Dominican Republic | Dominican Republic | Strategy/Policy | Enable the Dominican Republic to sequester and store substantial blue carbon through the conservation and restoration of mangroves, thus diminishing greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere. The path to achieving this result through this NAMA includes enhancing and focusing the national level policy environment through collective understanding and commitment to the NAMA; the application of sound science in quantifying the country’s current and potential carbon sequestering and storage capacity; analysis and pursuit of potential carbon credit income for the Dominican Republic; and a participatory role for the private sector and communities around the country to actively support conservation and restoration efforts. |
Reduce encroachment into forests and virgin lands through improvement of food storage facilities and promotion of the use of post-harvest technologies | Gambia | Strategy/Policy | This project aims to promote and facilitate the procurement of and utilization of post harvest and food processing technologies to improve food availability and thus reduce clearing of virgin lands for cultivation of more food. The clearing of virgin lands, most of which are forest and rangelands leads to reduced sinks and increased emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. |
Forestry NAMA in The Gambia | Gambia | Strategy/Policy | Convert forestry sector from emissions source to emissions sink: restore and rehabilitate degraded forest lands, protect and conserve wetlands, and develop greenbelts around human settlements, national forests, wildlife parks and protected areas through afforestation and reforestation. |
Efficient use of biomass for equitable, climate proof and sustainable rural development | Georgia | Strategy/Policy | The objective of the NAMA is to contribute to transformational change in the energy supply of rural areas, aiming for efficient use of biomass through the use and up-scaling of Solar Water Heaters (SWH), Fuel Efficient Wood Stoves (FEWS), Energy Efficient Insulation (EEI) Measures in rural households and public buildings and sustainable forest management. |
Adaptive Sustainable Forest Management in Borjomi-Bakuriani Forest District | Georgia | Strategy/Policy | Generate a relevant climate change adaptation and mitigation impact in the Borjomi-Bakuriani pilot region as basis for upscaling and policy development at national level, and to improve the livelihood of people by supporting the sustainable development of forest ecosystems in Georgia |
Agroforestry for Rehabilitation of Degraded Land | Indonesia | Strategy/Policy | Agroforestry for Rehabilitation of Degraded Land, in short Agroforestry, is a Locally Appropriate Mitigation Action (LAMA) intended to rehabilitate degraded land in Indonesia. |
NAMA in the forestry sector | Mali | Not known | Reduction of GHG emissions by 12 MtCO2 per year through afforestation and reforestation |
Support to Sierra Leone Preparation of NAMA | Sierra Leone | Strategy/Policy | The objective is to reflect the country concerns in addressing the issues of climate change and build on sectoral synergies to enable emission reduction starting 2016. |
Tajikistan Forestry NAMA | Tajikistan | Project | The NAMA Support Project has several aims. These include forest renewal, conservation and sustainable management, contributing to climate change mitigation. Its other objectives are to maintain biodiversity, improve the livelihoods of local people and leverage public and private finance. |
NAMA Forest in Tunisia | Tunisia | Strategy/Policy | The objective is to widen the forest surface of the country to 10 % of the total area of the country by 2034, including forest and pastoral plantations, regeneration of the existing forests and plantation of olive trees. |
Rainfed Mountain Belt Reforestation | Uzbekistan | Strategy/Policy |
The objective of the NAMA is the reforestation of the rainforest in order to:
(i) achieve a substantial net GHG sequestration (ii) achieve a comprehensive, country-wide organized transformation to sustainable, low-carbon land-management (iii) decrease above ground soil erosion of watersheds and improve water retention (iv) improve soil fertility (v) provide sustainable livelihoods to local communities. |

Sustainable Peatland Management in Indonesia | Indonesia | Strategy/Policy | This study is intended to develop into a NAMA with the objective to |
City wide mitigation programme of Greater Amman Municipality | Jordan | Strategy/Policy | To reduce emissions in municipal waste, urban transport, sustainable energy, and urban forestry estimated to average around 560 ktCO2e per year. |
Restoration of forests on degraded lands | Kenya | Not known | Restore forests on 960,000 hectares of degraded lands by 2030 to abate 32.6 MtCO2e |
