Ethiopia
OUR PROGRAM
The NAP Global Network worked with the Environment, Forest and Climate Change Commission (EFCCC) in Ethiopia from 2016 to 2020 to turn their National Adaptation Plan (NAP) into action, particularly at the subnational level.
We helped the government engage national and regional stakeholders on key issues related to the NAP process through dialogue and capacity-building processes.
We also supported the development of strategic documents that will help guide the implementation of the NAP and needed resource mobilization.
