Climate and Development: The Potential for Climate Co-benefits in the Mozambican Rice Sector

The analysis argues that increasing rice production in Mozambique can be aligned with greenhouse gas emission reductions through an SD-PAM mechanism, suggesting that development policies can serve as a precursor for climate mitigation in least developed countries (LDCs).

• Increasing rice production in Mozambique can be achieved in ways that simultaneously reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and an SD-PAM mechanism could help support these co-benefits.
• The design of an SD-PAM mechanism in least developed countries (LDCs) is influenced by three factors: the impact of contextual factors on policy programmes, the necessity of capacity building alongside funding and technology transfer, and the goal of avoiding future emissions by changing development paths rather than reducing absolute emissions.
