Review of the Embassy’s Development Cooperation Portfolio Climate Change and Environment “Climate Proofing and Greening of the Portfolio” (Nicaragua)
The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Managua (the Embassy) has requested the assistance from Norad to undertake a review of the Embassy’s portfolio to identify possible ways and means of addressing/integrating appropriate climate change and environmental concerns in existing programs and projects supported by Norway. The Review was commissioned in response to the increased priority given to climate change and environment in Norwegian development cooperation policy. This Review is intended to contribute to ”climate proofing” and a “greening” of the Embassy’s portfolio. The rationale for Norwegian development cooperation is to support Nicaragua’s own effort to improve living conditions of its population in line with the priorities and goal of the National Human Development Plan (Plan Nacional de Desarrollo Humano – PNDH) and the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
