Guinea

NDC Status 

Guinea submitted its third NDC in November 2025.

Key highlights from the NDC 

• Guinea's third NDC (2026-2035) enhances the country’s mitigation and adaptation targets. The updated mitigation target is now economy-wide, covering all key sectors and gases, including fluorinated gases for the first time.
• The country commits to an unconditional greenhouse gas reduction target of 17 percent and a conditional target of 49 percent by 2035, compared to a business-as-usual scenario.
• Guinea’s latest NDC also strengthens adaptation efforts, expanding from three to seven strategic commitments that now include public health, education, and climate-induced migration, aligning with the country’s National Adaptation Plan.
• The NDC maintains a strong focus on gender equality, youth inclusion, and the creation of social safety nets for a just transition.
• The NDC includes a total estimated cost of implementation which is US$17.7 billion ($9.3 billion for mitigation and $8.4 billion for adaptation), with the achievement of conditional targets depending on international financial support.
• The NDC was supported by a number of UN partners, including UNDP, UNICEF, FAO, WFP, WHO, UNFPA, and OHCHR. UNDP provided central coordination and technical support, notably revising the adaptation component and compiling all sectoral reports. Other UN partners provided specialized thematic expertise.
