Policy Development Plan 2017–2021 of Suriname

Constitutionally mandated five-year national development plan setting Suriname's policy priorities and targets for 2017–2021. Organized around four development pillars, the fourth — Utilization and Protection of the Environment — explicitly integrates climate change as a cross-cutting issue, with provisions on sea-level rise, disaster management, emissions reduction, and agriculture-related environmental threats. The plan establishes a two-track agricultural development policy, lays the groundwork for energy transition and forest protection, and provides the overarching framework for the country's NAP and NDC.
