This regional summary was developed with the contributions of nine United Nations agencies with a presence in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC): UNEP, UNDRR, UNDP, ILO, UN Women, ECLAC, UNICEF, UNHCR and IOM. These agencies belong to the Issue-based Coalition (IBC) for Climate Change and Resilience in LAC. Since 2020, this IBC has been producing a series of regional documents on issues of strategic importance for Latin America and the Caribbean, with the aim of providing relevant information, inputs and tools for decision-makers, Resident Coordinators (RC) and United Nations Country Teams (UNCT).
