High vulnerability to Climate Change
•Informal settlements in risk areas.
•Vulnerable population affected by extreme events.
•Coastal vulnerability (sea level rise, extreme events, salt-water intrusion). Infrastructure damages and sand-beach erosion, heavy storms.
•Water resource vulnerability.
•Increasing social fragmentation and concentration of high vulnerability agriculture producers in peripheral rural areas.
•Vulnerability in food security.
•Wetlands and other ecosystems with high vulnerability.
•GHG emissions profile different from country (70% of Uruguay’s CO2 emissions)

Participation in the Territorial Approach to Climate Change Initiative
(TACC Uruguay)
Territorial scope:
Metropolitan Region
Departments of Canelones,
Montevideo and San José
1st project of the UNDP - UNEP global initiative called “Towards
Carbon Neutral and Climate Change Resilient Territories”.
Project Period: 2009 - 2012
![Page 5: Montevideo Towards t erritorial climate change and sustainability strategies](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051622/56815080550346895dbe7d48/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Metropolitan Climate Action Plan is the
first experience of climate change planning at
the subnational level in Uruguay.
• Participatory process
• Multi-disciplinary and inter-sectoral
• Territorial approach
• Capacity building
The methodological approach used addresses
climate change as a sustainable
development issue.
The Plan synthesizes a 3-years process of
participatory planning with experts, citizens
and local stakeholders.

METROPOLITAN CLIMATE ACTION PLAN
OF URUGUAY

The Plan was developed in 5 steps
The Metropolitan Plan was published in November 2012.
