This report supports countries seeking to promote and preserve blue carbon/coastal wetlands by providing technical guidance on the multiple avenues through which they can be included within new and updated Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement, and can thus contribute to countries’ raised ambitions. The report presents a “tiered approach,” similar to that employed by IPCC guidance, to demonstrate how a variety of motivations and starting points all represent viable pathways for the inclusion of coastal wetlands in NDCs.
