Global economic stability, human health, and ecosystems are all seriously threatened by climate change. More flooding, desertification, rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and a rise in the frequency of extreme weather events that result in food insecurity are just a few of the problems Nigeria faces as one of the nations most at risk from climate change. With an emphasis on Abuja, this study examines the policy frameworks and technology advancements used in Nigeria to mitigate the effects of climate change. It assesses the efficacy of national initiatives, including Nigeria's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement, the Renewable Energy Master Plan, and the National Climate Change Policy and Response Strategy. Additionally, it looks into how energy efficiency initiatives, sustainable urban design, and renewable energy technology might lower greenhouse gas emissions. Abuja, as the political and administrative capital, presents unique opportunities and challenges in implementing climate action, particularly in transportation, infrastructure development, and energy use. The study highlights the socio-economic factors influencing Nigeria’s vulnerability, including poverty, rapid urbanization, and inadequate infrastructure. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research identifies existing gaps in implementation, financing, and public awareness, while also exploring opportunities for improvement. The paper concludes with strategic recommendations to strengthen Nigeria’s climate resilience through integrated policies, enhanced technological adoption, and active community participation.
