This guide provides recommendations for decision-makers on developing and revising Long-Term Strategies (LTS) for low-emission development, aligned with the Paris Agreement's goals of limiting global temperature increases to well below 2°C and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5°C.

This guide by the World Resources Institute provides a framework for civil society stakeholders to evaluate national long-term low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions development strategies. It outlines the importance of these strategies in linking short-term nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement's goals and details the essential elements, such as mitigation targets, adaptation plans, and monitoring processes, that should be present in a robust strategy.
