This report presents the results of the Review and Update of Namibia's National Circumstances and Infrastructural Support to Reduce Vulnerability to Climate Change. In short this study is referred to as "National Circumstances". The review of National Circumstances was called for in 2008 by the Namibia Committee on Climate Change (NCCC) as part of a series of studies that were needed in preparation of the Second National Communication (SNC) on Climate Change for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This Convention has been ratified by Namibia in 1995 and as such Namibia became obligated to implement measures to mitigate the effects of climate change and to adapt to such changes. The preparation of the Second National Communication to the UNFCCC is one of the obligations of the Convention that Namibia has to fulfil. The SNC project is coordinated by the Ministry of Environment and Tourism (MET) on behalf of the NCCC.
