Peru is a country with a diverse climate with main regions of the coast, the Andes, and the Amazon. The northern Andes are subject to frosts, while the southern Andes are drought prone. The Amazon rainforest, together with the country’s Eastern lowlands usually have high temperatures and rainfall throughout the year (World Bank Climate Change Portal).  
 
Rising temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, and extreme weather events are disrupting agriculture, fisheries, and water resources. Melting glaciers threaten water security and hydropower generation. Coastal communities are at risk from sea-level rise and extreme weather events. Additionally, climate change exacerbates health risks, such as the spread of diseases. These impacts disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, particularly those in rural areas and low-income communities (UNEP GRID-Geneva).
