during consultations with range of expertise.
• For example degree of integration of adaptation initiatives into plans and associated
policies;

– Medium: Prioritisation and implementation of climate change adaptation related
programmes/projects in national, provincial and municipal plans informed by risk profile and
vulnerability assessment
– High: Impact of implementation of the programmes/projects in reducing the vulnerability identified
in risk profile and vulnerability assessment
