Kathmandu - Nepal
This paper aims to identify policy measures in line with the UN’s New Urban Agenda and in the context of the respective Nationally Determined Contributions of Nepal. This paper reviews current developments of Nepal to mitigate and its adaptation to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by focusing on the country’s national policies and implementation strategies in keeping with the Paris Agreement on Climate Change (2015). A brief analysis of the Kathmandu Valley’s strategies to accordingly mitigate and adapt is conducted by reviewing the sectors of energy, transport and resource/waste management. |

Belo Horizonte - Brazil
Brazil commits to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 37% below 2005 levels by 2025. The countries National Determined Contributions also contain a subsequent indicative contribution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 43% below 2005 levels in 2030. The NDC measures and targets give significant prominence to LULUCF, e.g.: - Energy mix: increasing the share of sustainable biofuels in the Brazilian energy mix to approx. 18% by 2030 - Energy sector: achieving 45% of renewables in the energy mix by 2030 |

Nairobi - Kenya
Kenya is committed to reduce its GHG emissions by 30% by 2030, relative to a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario (baseline 2010) of predicted 143 MtCO2e in 2030. Kenya´s National Strategy aims to curb greenhouse gas such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) in sectors, such as energy, transportation, industrial processes, agriculture, forestry and other land use and the waste sector. UN-Habitat is grateful for the financial supportprovided by the government of Norway for the NDC analysis this paper is based on.
