Nepal is one of the world’s most vulnerable countries to global climate change. It ranks in the top 20 countries that have suffered the most from the impacts of climate change, through floods, forest fires, drought and other climate-induced disasters. An increase in these climate impacts would threaten Nepal’s development efforts and the lives and livelihoods of its people, particularly women and those who are poor. There is already evidence of an increase in these impacts. Government, businesses and people must act now to reduce the emissions that cause global warming (mitigation) and to ensure that the people are protected from climate events and better able to predict and respond to climate changes through effective adaptation measures. Much of the government’s response will involve raising and spending financial resources. The Nepal Citizens Climate Budget describes the steps the government is taking to manage climate-related financial resources and presents the 2018/19 climate budget.
