Climate change is a threat to Mongolia's economic growth, sustainable development, and fragile environment. Well-designed actions to mitigate climate change can provide multiple benefits, including socioeconomic development and resilience to climate variability and change. Nationally appropriate mitigation actions can provide a framework for the identification and implementation of mitigation actions. This publication identifies and assesses technical, institutional, and policy elements needed to develop and implement appropriate mitigation actions in the grassland and livestock sector. Technical elements include estimates of greenhouse gas mitigation potential, economic costs and benefits, greenhouse gas measurement options, adaptation benefits, and barriers to adoption and identification of policies and measures.
