The United Nations Environment Programme is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment.


The UNEP Latin America and the Caribbean Office (LACO) located in Panama City, Panama works closely with the 33 countries of the region.

Its activities are integrated into the Medium-Term Strategy and the Programme of Work approved by the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA).


Throughout UNEP's work, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change marks a turning point to an emerging climate regime that brings all the states and actors together to a new global platform to address the growing risks to our planet.


Under the 2015 Paris Agreement, countries unanimously agreed to work toward global goals that would limit global average temperature rise.

Specifically, the Agreement seeks to limit the increase in the world's average surface temperature to "well below" 2°C above pre-industrial times this century while "pursuing efforts" for 1.5°C.

It also targets eliminating global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by the second half of the century.

Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is highly vulnerable to climate change.

The region suffers from an increasing number of climate-induced natural disasters and other adverse impacts on all spheres of life and geographic areas.

Moreover, the physical effects of climate change and disasters are causing the reinforcement of pervasive structural inequalities and socioeconomic vulnerabilities.

Since gender equality and human rights are given insufficient consideration in climate change mitigation and adaptation plans, these are areas where inequalities are increasing with the effects of climate change.
