Costa Rica’s NAMA Support Project "Low Carbon Coffee" is a sector-specific approach aiming for a climate-friendly transformation of the entire value chain of one of the most important economic sectors in the country.
The NAMA Support Project offers technical and policy advice to change production and processing practices in the sector, which is the source of nine percent of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the project incentivises private sector investments by providing grants, loans and guarantees for coffee farmers and millers in order to acquire greenhouse gas-efficient fertiliser and milling technologies.
