dc.descriptionThe World Bank Group’s Country Climate and Development Reports (CCDRs) are a core diagnostic that integrates climate change and development. They help countries prioritize the most impactful actions that can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and boost adaptation and resilience, while delivering on broader development goals. CCDRs build on data and rigorous research and identify main pathways to reduce GHG emissions and climate vulnerabilities, including the costs and challenges as well as benefits and opportunities from doing so. The reports suggest concrete, priority actions to support the low-carbon, resilient transition. As public documents, CCDRs aim to inform governments, citizens, the private sector and development partners and enable engagements with the development and climate agenda. CCDRs feed into other core Bank Group diagnostics, country engagements and operations, and help attract funding and direct financing for high-impact climate action.
dc.description.abstractBuilding on the analytical framework of this CCDR, this report outlines steps to strengthen Bhutan’s resilience while accelerating economic diversification. Despite the emerging climate challenges, Bhutan can drive sustainable growth by leveraging its carbon-negative status and abundant natural resources. Key resilience-building measures include enhancing the spillovers of hydropower production to related sectors, raising agricultural productivity through CSA adoption, and strengthening infrastructure to better support economic activity despite climate risks. Creating the conditions for sustainable green growth in forestry and tourism will support economic diversification and create opportunities for green job creation. The key enablers are harnessing innovative climate finance mechanisms, strengthening institutional capacity, and empowering communities to drive locally-led climate adaptation.en
