Climate priorities and action in the Hindu Kush Himalaya

  • ICIMOD
  • Summary

In the truest of senses, the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) is the pulse of the planet. Being on top of the world, changes happen here before they happen anywhere else. The HKH countries have made commitments and put in place instruments to mitigate and adapt to the changing climate. The availability and mobilization of finance is pivotal in meeting mitigation and adaptation goals, but they must be available in time and in quantum to the needs. There is a huge potential for convergence and cooperation among the HKH countries regarding mitigation, adaptation, and financial measures as reflected in their national-level priorities.
