2 Context Although adaptation is a priority in our region CR committed to ambitious reductions from ALL countries, according to capabilities and enabling factors: –Goal of being carbon neutral by 2021 –Remain in low emission development pathway thereafter Green development Low emission dev. Climate resilience Carbonneutrality NAMAs NAPA like inst.

3 Comprehensive mitigation processes are still in initial phase So far: -Sustained political will involving different levels and sectors -Pathway established: abatement curves estimated Under development: - Carbon neutrality standard (recognized internationally) -REDD+ national plan -Costa Rican green bond, WB -Private sector engagement Pending: -Defining MRV for all sectors -Ensuring prevention double accounting -Define use of forest carbon credits natl. vs. intl. markets

11 CONCLUSIONS Middle income countries are also relevant (Costa Ricas case): -Absorptive capacity can produce rapid results -Institutional arrangements and accountability -Avoid becoming part of the problem (long term global goals) -Provide greater emission reductions than other groups of countries -Strengthen national accounting systems of emissions -Overcome governance obstacles -Uncertainty of intl. registry mechanism and natl. implications -Lack of support in early phase -Greater access to carbon markets Some challenges : Carazo, F.
