The Policy Inventory for Mitigation Actions in Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use Sectors (PIMA-AFOLU) contains over 1 300 AFOLU policies which directly or indirectly support climate change mitigation efforts in 44 countries. Diverse direct and indirect policy instruments include economic (e.g. subsidies), regulatory (e.g. performance standards), and other types of policies (e.g. training programmes). About two-thirds of these policies have been created or implemented in the last decade. The policies cover a wide scope of sectors, subsectors, and domains (e.g. biodiversity, water, and climate change). PIMA-AFOLU showcases the strategies and measures countries use to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, serving as both a record of public policy efforts and a knowledge-sharing platform. Additionally, this inventory may support efforts to assess the impact of public mitigation policies in the AFOLU sectors.
