Ghana National Climate Change Policy.

The present National Climate Change Policy (NCCP) is Ghana’s integrated response to climate change. It has been prepared and designed within the context of national sustainable development priorities; it provides a clearly defined pathway for dealing with the challenges of climate change within the current socio-economic context of Ghana, and looks ahead to the opportunities and benefits of a green economy. The afore-mentioned integrated response to climate change is in three phases: Phase One analyses the current situation, and gives the broad policy vision and objectives. Phase Two presents in greater detail, the initiatives and programmes identified in the Policy in the form of an Action Programme for implementation. Phase Three will detail how climate change programmes and actions identified in Phase two can be mainstreamed and embedded in a time bound and budgeted manner, into annual work plans of implementing units.
