Abstract

As a Master’s student in International Relations and Diplomacy, this policy brief explores climate change mitigation in the context of the Republic of Guinea, It examines the challenges the country faces, such as deforestation, unregulated farming, and dependence on fossil fuels, while also evaluating national and international efforts toward mitigation. Drawing on the recent UNDP-supported project launched in 2024 with a budget of US$6.2 million, aimed at strengthening climate resilience in Guinea’s Forest Region, this work highlights the alignment between local development needs and global climate mitigation goals. The project seeks to restore degraded lands, increase renewable energy use, and build community-based climate awareness, serving as a model for sustainable practices in vulnerable ecosystems. Through an analysis of policies, institutional frameworks, and community participation, the brief offers concrete recommendations to enhance Guinea’s contribution to global mitigation efforts. The goal is to bridge the gap between national action and international climate commitments, especially as the country prepares for future COP negotiations
