Somalia Action Agenda

From commitments to implementation — connecting resilience, low-carbon development and climate finance with practical delivery for communities and ecosystems.

Implementation targets

A coordinated route to 2035

Somalia’s NDC 3.0 sets a 34% greenhouse-gas emissions reduction target by 2035 relative to business as usual: 5% unconditional and 29% conditional on international support.

Achievement depends on climate finance, institutional and technical capacity, better climate data, technology transfer and strong implementation partnerships. The agenda therefore links national coordination with action in energy, agriculture, forestry, waste, water, land and coastal systems.
