Sumario:This article summarises the background, analysis and conclusions of the study “Contribution of cattle NAMAs to NDCs in Latin America” carried out by the Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE, by its acronym in Spanish) in October 2020. The applied methodology, in the study, was the formulation of possible implementation scenarios for livestock NAMAs based on information provided by the World Governance Index (WGI), the Doing Business Index (DBI), and the Human Development Index (HDI). This article focuses on the scenarios derived from the consolidated and weighted indexes; it also analyses the opportunities for success that each country currently offers, and provides conclusions that contribute to the design, implementation and monitoring of livestock NAMAs in countries that currently have it duly registered. In addition, Uruguay was included due to the importance of livestock production, as was Nicaragua due to the progress made so far in the design process of the livestock NAMAs.
