Resumen
Descripción
This overview of climate change
activities in Kazakhstan is part of a series of country
notes for five Central Asian countries that summarize
climate portfolio of the major development partners in a
number of climate-sensitive sectors, namely energy,
agriculture, forestry, and natural resources, water, health,
and transport. Recognizing the nature and significance of
climate change contribution to an increase in disaster risk,
the note also looks into the development partners'
approaches and measures in this area. The note further
provides a brief overview of Kazakhstan's climate
context in terms of observed impacts and historical trends
as well as climate projections specific to sectors that are
considered to be essential to the country's economic
development. Finally, the note assesses national policy and
institutional context related to climate change and suggests
potential ways forward that can help Kazakhstan mainstream
low-carbon, climate-resilient development.
