This is a repository of useful and up-to-date information on the states and municipalities of Mexico, in reference to their contributions toward the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) for the fight against climate change.

The contents of this tool are based on the results of the regional workshops on “Strengthening Subnational Capacities and Contributions to the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC),” which were carried out between August 2017 and January 2018 and promoted by the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) and the National Institute of Ecology and Climate Change (INECC), in collaboration with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
