Packaging Adaptation Actions into Programmes, Projects and Policies

The document discusses packaging adaptation actions from a National Adaptation Plan (NAP) into implementation strategies. It suggests developing an investment framework aligned with funding sources like the Green Climate Fund. The implementation strategy should guide how to execute prioritized adaptation actions through projects, programs, or policies. Considerations for implementation include managing actions in parallel, learning from past projects, and a programmatic or step-wise approach depending on prioritization and scale.

Nap sdg i frame june 2017

This document introduces an integrative framework called the NAP-SDG iFrame to help countries find coherence between their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The framework takes a systems-based approach to identify key sectors affected by climate change, like food security and health, and assess their sensitivity. It then develops and prioritizes adaptation actions to achieve SDG targets while accruing adaptation benefits. Outcomes are monitored to support reporting on progress toward both the SDGs and adaptation goals. The LEG will provide guidance on applying this framework through regional NAP workshops and other events to encourage collaboration across ministries and organizations.

UNDP Climate

The document discusses impact chains and their application in assessing climate risks and impacts for agricultural sectors in national adaptation plans (NAPs). It defines key terms like hazards, exposure, vulnerability, risk, and outlines how these components can be applied to develop impact chains. Specifically, it provides examples of developing impact chains for the rice sub-sector in Thailand by outlining climate drivers, sensitivity factors, and adaptive capacities. The document concludes by discussing opportunities for support from GIZ and the Thai government in further developing impact chains.

This document discusses prioritizing climate change adaptation programs and projects in Thailand. It notes that Thailand currently has 4 strategies, 11 programs, and 53 programs for adaptation, but many projects under programs are not tracked. Prioritization is needed to identify strategic areas and allocate limited budgets. Currently, prioritization is intuitive rather than systematic. The document proposes using a scoring methodology to systematically prioritize programs and projects based on their climate relevance, policy alignment, socioeconomic impacts, co-benefits, feasibility, and financing requirements. An example scoring framework is provided.

Intro to mainstreaming adaptation

The document discusses mainstreaming adaptation to climate change into development planning. Mainstreaming means systematically identifying climate risks and opportunities and modifying policies, strategies, and plans wherever necessary to address vulnerabilities across sectors in the long term. It involves taking a development-first approach where climate change is considered an integral part of development planning. The key steps for mainstreaming adaptation are to identify development goals and how they could be affected by climate change, identify which policies and plans need modification to reduce vulnerabilities, identify relevant adaptation options, engage actors responsible for implementation, and identify required resources and capacities as well as barriers. Mainstreaming helps make national investments work for climate change and can improve access to international climate funds.

Components of a NAP

The document discusses components of a National Adaptation Plan (NAP). A NAP is a strategic national plan developed by a country to implement climate change adaptation. It focuses on high-level approaches to reduce vulnerability and build climate resilience. Key elements of a NAP include assessments of climate risks and vulnerabilities, adaptation options, knowledge sharing, policy development, integrating adaptation into development plans, financing strategies, and monitoring frameworks. The document provides guidance for workshop participants to discuss components of a NAP in groups and present their proposed outlines.

The presentation discusses tools to identify synergies between national adaptation plans (NAPs) and nationally determined contributions (NDCs). It introduces the NAP-NDC Linkages study, the Tool for Assessing Adaptation in the NDCs (TAAN), and the NDC Adaptation Toolbox. The study found that over 130 countries included adaptation in their NDCs. The TAAN allows understanding and comparing adaptation contents and measures in NDCs. The Toolbox is organized along the policy cycle to support NDC implementation through existing NAP guidance and case studies. Aligning NAP and NDC processes can help achieve adaptation goals, avoid duplication, and access finance sources identified in NAPs.

This document discusses accounting issues related to countries' Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. It notes that most current NDCs reference a "business as usual" scenario but does not define how this baseline is established. It also examines how countries may account for and report on their targets over time, considering things like base years, baseline emissions, reduction rates, and emission levels. It raises questions about how different target types like absolute, intensity and business as usual targets will be quantified and accounted for. It discusses the negotiations underway to develop guidance on accounting and suggests more clarity is needed on accounting for national targets and sectoral policies and measures.

This document summarizes Mexico's efforts to develop indicators for monitoring and evaluating climate change adaptation. It discusses challenges such as the lack of universal adaptation indicators and uncertainties around climate impacts. It also describes Mexico's process of identifying adaptation indicators through a working group and aligning them with frameworks like the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Next steps include further developing indicators for Mexico's National Adaptation Plan and integrating adaptation metrics into national reporting systems. The document outlines both challenges around mainstreaming adaptation and opportunities through coordination across actors and alignment with development planning processes.

The document discusses when accounting guidance could be useful in the NDC (Nationally Determined Contribution) cycle. It suggests accounting guidance may help when countries communicate their NDC, when they track progress during implementation in biennial reports, and after the target period to measure actual achievement against the target. It also presents a diagram showing how accounting guidance could be applied at different stages of the first NDC cycle, including communication of NDCs, implementation, reporting, and accounting for the first NDC. The document raises questions about when in the cycle accounting guidance should be applied and what implications delayed inventory reporting timeframes have for accounting.

1) The document discusses mainstreaming climate change considerations into International Waters projects. It recognizes the need to integrate climate impacts, vulnerability, and adaptation into existing project processes and decision-making. 2) Mainstreaming climate change is an iterative process that requires continuous effort from a range of actors to integrate climate change factors at multiple levels from national policies to sectoral planning to individual projects. 3) There are existing guidance documents and tools for climate risk screening, analysis, and adaptation that can help projects mainstream climate change. However, the unique needs of transboundary water projects require guidance tailored for international waters projects.

This document discusses accounting considerations and guidance needs for different types of mitigation contributions under the Paris Agreement, including emissions intensity goals and goals relative to baseline emissions levels. Key issues addressed include requirements to quantify future emissions in the target year, developing reference levels for corresponding adjustments under cooperative mechanisms, data sources and guidance for intensity targets, defining consistency and review procedures for baseline scenarios, and inclusion of policies and cutoff years. Recommendations are made around enhancing transparency of assumptions in baseline scenarios and including all adopted policies with significant emissions impacts.

Compiling the NAP

This document summarizes the key elements and process for formulating a National Adaptation Plan (NAP). It discusses that a NAP should be a strategic national plan that focuses on high-level approaches to reduce vulnerability and ensure climate-resilient development. It should provide details to guide implementation in key sectors and for vulnerable groups. The document then outlines the typical elements that should be included in a NAP, such as background information, a methodology, an analysis of climate risks and vulnerabilities, national adaptation priorities and costs, an implementation strategy, and a monitoring and evaluation framework. Finally, it provides contact information for the Least Developed Countries Expert Group that supports countries in developing NAPs.

3.2- FOURTH ENVIRONET-WP-STAT JOINT TASK TEAM MEETING

This document discusses a guidance table created by KfW Development Bank to help assign climate change Rio Markers to development projects. The guidance table provides examples of project types in various sectors and recommends Rio Marker scores for climate change mitigation and adaptation. It aims to standardize the assignment of Rio Markers and complement existing guidelines. The table is intended as an orientation tool for project developers, and is not officially binding. It is used by KfW and BMZ to advise on and quality check Rio Marker assignments. Benefits include improved consistency in scoring, less need for advice, faster quality control, and increased understanding of how projects can qualify for climate change financing.

1) The document summarizes the OECD guidance on transition finance, which aims to ensure the credibility of corporate climate transition plans. It outlines key challenges in transition finance and elements that make transition plans credible. 2) Over half of global greenhouse gas emissions come from energy and industry. Transition finance is mainly provided through sustainability-linked bonds and loans to help companies implement net-zero plans. 3) Credible transition plans should set science-based net-zero targets, outline strategies to meet interim goals, and integrate climate metrics into financial reporting to ensure accountability.

OECD Green Talks LIVE: Moving the world economy to net zero: the role of tran...

To meet the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement, decarbonisation measures will need to be financed across all sectors of the economy — most importantly in energy-intensive and hard-to-abate sectors in emerging markets and developing economies. As governments and the private sector ramp up their net-zero pledges, grapple with the ongoing energy crisis and face rising inflation, how to achieve those goals is increasingly put into question. In the midst of these challenges, market actors and jurisdictions have ramped up efforts around transition finance, such as developing taxonomies and guidelines. But transition finance is often criticised for opening the door to greenwashing and risking emission-intensive lock-in. How can we ensure the development of robust corporate transition plans to support credible and meaningful transition investments towards net zero? And how can emission-intensive lock-in and greenwashing be avoided? Experts on transition finance and transition planning will present and discuss their importance for moving to net-zero pathways in hard-to-abate sectors and emerging markets and developing economies, as well as outstanding challenges in this space. The presentation will draw from the recent report OECD Guidance on Transition Finance: Ensuring Credibility of Corporate Climate Transition Plans (Find the report here: https://oe.cd/transition-fin), which proposes 10 key elements to help corporates in developing transition plans, financiers to identify credible investment opportunities, and policymakers to develop strong policy frameworks.

Appraising Adaptation Actions

This document provides guidance on appraising adaptation actions through climate change impact assessment (CCIA). CCIA estimates the proportion of total benefits from a program that are associated with adaptation and mitigation to determine a climate change relevance percentage (CC%). A rapid CCIA can be completed in a few hours by compiling available evidence and expert opinions to score benefits, while a more in-depth valuation-based CCIA uses formal models. An exercise walks through applying a six-step qualitative scoring methodology to a forestry program as an example to estimate the CC% through a rapid CCIA.

Climate Change Financing Frameworks (CCFFs) can support national adaptation plan (NAP) processes in several ways: 1. CCFFs provide a robust framework for prioritizing adaptation actions based on their effectiveness in addressing climate impacts and economic costs. 2. CCFFs can be used to develop long-term financing scenarios and strategies for accessing different sources of climate funds. 3. Applying CCFFs helps enhance government capacity to integrate climate change into public planning and budgeting. 4. CCFFs promote coordination across sectors and ministries by providing a common framework for climate budgeting.

5a.2 Financing Resilient Growth

This document discusses mainstreaming climate change adaptation through financing frameworks. It notes the large estimated costs of adaptation versus available climate funds. Countries must integrate climate change into national budgets and planning to address this gap. The adaptation gap is defined as climate damage not addressed by current and projected adaptation levels, as a percentage of total potential damage. Financing frameworks can support National Adaptation Plans by prioritizing adaptation, developing long-term strategies, building capacity, and coordinating monitoring and review of public expenditure and the adaptation gap over time. An online course is proposed to teach these concepts and tools to policymakers and planners.
