Global Climate Change: Country and Regional Information
USAID’s Climate Change Program is active in over forty countries, with certain countries and regions identified as priority areas for climate change-related interventions. The Agency has identified the countries of Brazil, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines, Russia, and South Africa as key countries and focuses its efforts in three sub-regions Central Africa (including Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Republic of Congo, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon), Central America (including Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama) and Central Asia (including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan). These countries were selected because they include the largest greenhouse gas emitters and countries with significant potential for, and interest in, land-based carbon sequestration.
