Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) - Kiribati

Kiribati is a Least Developed Country (LDC) SIDS with limited resources that will nonetheless commit to reduce emissions by:

• 13.7% by 2025 and
• 12.8%  by 2030 compared to a BaU projection. 

On the understanding that a global agreement addresses international assistance to access financial and technical resources, Kiribati can, with international assistance, contribute a further:

• 48.8% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2025; and 
• 49% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, compared to the BAU projection.

With appropriate international assistance, Kiribati can reduce its emissions by more than 60% (61.8%) by 2030.

Kiribati submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 5th of November 2015.

No further revisions were undertaken and the same document was endorsed and submitted as the First nationally determined contributions on 21st September 2016.
