| Summary: | This overview of climate change
activities in Turkmenistan is part of a series of country
notes for five Central Asian countries that summarize
climate portfolio in a number of sectors, namely
agriculture, forestry, water, health, energy, and transport.
This note further provides a brief overview of
Turkmenistan's climate context in terms of observed
impacts and historical trends as well as climate projections
specific to sectors that are considered to be essential to
the country's economic development. Finally, the note
assesses national policy and institutional context related
to climate change as well as suggests potential ways forward
that could help Turkmenistan mainstream climate
considerations into development activities and planning and
create public demand for climate actions. |
