National Activities - US Country Studies



Since 1993, the U.S. Country Studies Program has provided technical and financial support to 55 developing countries and countries with economies in transition to assist them in conducting climate change studies. These studies help countries to:

  • Assess their vulnerabilities to climate change
  • Evaluate their mitigation and adaptation response options.
  • Develop inventories of their greenhouse gas emissions.

The U.S. Country Studies Program has provided grants, training, technical assistance equipment, data, analytical tools and information services to support and facilitate the studies. Handbooks to guide studies, state-of-the-art simulation models, and analytical methodologies and tools have been tailored to meet the needs of developing and transition countries.

The U.S. Country Studies Program continues to support analyses and assessments which support identification of climate change policies and measures. The program also helps develop and disseminate analytical information to further national and international discussions on global strategies for reducing the threat of climate change.
