Executive

Action Plan

Strategy

Passed in 2021

This document was prepared in accordance with government's Ordinance no 629/2019 on the “Approval of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation of Policy Documents.” It consists of a strategy to 2030 and an action plan covering the period 2021-2023. It identifies mitigation measures capable of translating into action the objectives set out in Georgia's existing NDCs, therefore of meeting the country's international commitments, but also to determine the future level of ambition.

The document sets specific GHG emissions reductions targets against the projection of a reference scenario.
