This document contains guided questions to assess capacity for climate change adaptation at the national and local levels. At the national level, it addresses whether the government has the capacity to monitor climate risks, disseminate information, integrate climate data into policies, implement policies at regional/local levels, and allocate resources for adaptation. It also asks about understanding links between climate change and poverty/vulnerability. For local governments, it addresses disaster response capacity, ability to monitor/analyze climate risks, disseminate information, implement adaptation policies, allocate adaptation budgets, capacity needs, and engaging vulnerable social groups in planning processes.
