According to the First Progress Report on the Implementation of the Second National Plan for Adaptation and Mitigation to Climate Change (2024), a total of 22,338 hectares were submitted as project ideas for the implementation of MBGI plans nationwide. This area represents only 7.5% of the desired final target for 2027. Over the next two years, an additional 277,662 hectares would need to be incorporated, implying an implementation pace well above the current rate (~139,000 ha/year). Of the 23 provinces, only 6 have implemented MBGI projects with endorsement from the Local Advisory Council (CCL), reflecting uneven territorial implementation. Chaco and Chubut lead in the number of locally endorsed MBGI ideas (11 and 6 projects, respectively). Santa Fe and Salta presented 4 ideas each, while Tucumán presented only 2. Buenos Aires and Jujuy have ideas with favorable technical evaluations but still lack territorial validation by the CCL (Fig. 2).

Detail

According to the First Progress Report of the second National Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Plan (2024), 22,338 ha were identified as MBGI project concepts, representing only 7.5% of the 2027 target. Meeting the target would require incorporating approximately 139,000 ha per year in 2026 and 2027, far above the current rate and, in addition, converting project concepts into land effectively under management. Only 6 provinces have projects with local endorsement: Chaco (11) and Chubut (6) lead, followed by Santa Fe and Salta (4 each) and Tucumán (2). Buenos Aires and Jujuy have technically approved projects, but without territorial validation by the CCL. The gap between the project portfolio and actual implementation, compounded by the lack of standardised information across provinces, justifies the “Early progress” classification.
