This policy programme is created pursuant to the obligations in Mexico's General Law on Cimate Change (Ley General De Cambio Climático). It has four priority objectives:
1.- Reduce the vulnerability to climate change of the population, ecosystems and their biodiversity, as well as productive systems and strategic infrastructure by promoting and strengthening adaptation processes and increasing resilience.
2.- Reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and compounds in order to generate development with social well-being, low in carbon and that protects the ozone layer, based on the best scientific knowledge available.
3.- Promote synergistic actions and policies between mitigation and adaptation, which address the climate crisis, prioritizing the generation of environmental, social and economic co-benefits.
4.- Strengthen coordination, financing and means of implementation mechanisms between levels of government for the implementation of climate change policy, prioritizing the co-creation of capacities and inclusion of different sectors of society, with a human rights approach.
