Taking Stock of Nature’s Role in National Adaptation Plans

Nature is essential for building resilience to climate change. Many countries’ national adaptation plans (NAPs) have focused on nature to scale up actions for ecosystems to help people adapt—for example, by protecting wetlands and restoring mangroves to help withstand the impacts of floods.   Given the importance of ecosystems across global environmental agendas and the […]

Peer Learning Strategy: Six insights from a decade of NAP Global Network’s South–South peer learning

In 2017, Victor Santillan, communications officer for Peru’s environment ministry, travelled to Castries for an exchange with Saint Lucia’s government peers as they developed their first-ever communications strategy for the national adaptation plan (NAP) process. Santillan joined a national workshop where the Saint Lucian government engaged journalists and communicators in dialogue on climate change adaptation. […]

Visualizing Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning in National Adaptation Planning Processes  

Monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems are used to provide a structured approach to monitoring progress, evaluating results, and learning to ensure climate change adaptation strategies are effectively achieving their intended outcomes. This blog builds on what the NAP Global Network has learned about effective NAP processes to identify and explain the basics of a MEL system as part of NAP processes.

Approches à la production de rapports d’avancement de la mise en œuvre du Plan national d’adaptation (PNA)

Cette année, le réseau mondial NAP a procédé à un examen des rapports d’avancement disponibles sur le NAP. Les résultats indiquent que les rapports diffèrent en termes d’objectifs énoncés, d’approches pour évaluer les progrès réalisés et de la façon dont les résultats sont présentés et communiqués. Nous voyons que le processus d’élaboration des rapports d’avancement des PAN présente de nombreux défis ainsi que de nombreuses opportunités pour renforcer les processus PAN.

Approaches to Progress Reporting on National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Implementation

This year, the NAP Global Network conducted a review of the available NAP progress reports. The results indicate that the reports differ in terms of the stated objectives, the approaches to evaluating the progress made, and the way the results are presented and communicated. We see that the process of developing NAP progress reports presents many challenges as well as many opportunities to strengthen NAP processes.

Building Climate-Resilient Health Systems: Four key actions to follow in National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes

More than a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, we are seeing major disruptions in the delivery of essential health services. As attention shifts to recovery, we have an opportunity to build health systems that are more resilient to future health shocks as well as to the impacts of climate change. National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes provide a basis for ensuring that this happens.
