Subnational climate plans and standards in Argentina: the case of Santa Fe
This policy report contributes to the evaluation of subnational climate policies and regulations in light of available public instruments, taking into account a range of dimensions or aspects at play. This entails that the evaluated dimensions will be addressed in subsequent reports, which will analyze cases from Argentine provinces, allowing for some level of comparability of actions and efforts.
