LIFE-AR is a pathway to realise the LDC Vision for all LDCs to deliver climate-resilient development pathways by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050.

LIFE-AR is LDC-led and LDC-owned, and focuses on strengthening LDCs’ institutions, systems and capabilities. The initiative is anchored within government’s existing institutions, and priorities link to existing climate governance arrangements. LIFE-AR is long term and works at the pace of LDCs, recognising that different countries have different capacities.
