Climate change stands out as one of the major challenges of the 21st century that threatens progress towards the achievement of national and millennium development goals of many countries including Namibia. The development of a national strategy will enable Namibia to fulfil her obligations of the UNFCCC framework and hence contribute to addressing this global problem. This National Climate change Strategy and Action Plan is part of the background activities of Namibia under the second national communication to develop a national climate change policy and strategy and accompanying action plan.
