Climate Policy
The Executive and Legislative branches, at all levels, are responsible for the defense of Brazilian sovereignty, such as energy and water security and the defense of the natural assets in the country, as well as ensuring the well-being of the population, working to reduce inequality and offering basic services to everyone.
The Climate Policy portfolio works to support parliamentarians, promoting conditions for assertive action, through studies, research and spaces for debate regarding the benefits of the advances of the climate agenda. The projects that integrate the Climate Policy portfolio seek to create conditions for the operation of the two branches in plans related to the climate agenda, based on three work fronts:
Ensure the conditions for the more ambitious commitments of Brazil in the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), which is a document that includes the commitments made in the Paris Agreement
Stimulate the leadership role for subnational actors in the debate and implementation of climate policies
Support the work of parliamentarians, so that the legislative reforms are aligned with the objectives of the Paris Agreement
