for adaptation planning

6. Adaptation
2a) Climate impacts the project/programme aims to address
2b)Vulnerabilities, exposure and hazards resulting in risks
3) Selected interventions based on options analysis
4) Integration to broader domestic and international policy and
decision-making processes
Climate Science Basis
1) Scientific underpinning for evidence-based climate action
Climate science basis for adaptation project design
(building from document GCF/B.21/Inf.08)

7. Step 1: Climate drivers
Understanding the earth climate system and its drivers
Step 2: Hazards
Understanding how climate services are generated and applied for
adaptation planning
Step 3: Impacts, exposure, vulnerability and risks
Understanding/identifying climate impacts, exposure, vulnerability and
risks. Understanding how risks are derived from hazard, exposure and
vulnerability
Step 4: Problem identification and analysis
Defining core problem based on climate rationale as a starting point for
project design
Step 5:Transformation of problem to project objectives
Reversing negative statements from the problem analysis into projects
objectives and desired effects
Step 6: Creation of theory of change
Creating theory of change tree to lay out a detailed strategy to achieve
expected results
Step 7: Development of Logical Framework from theory of
change
Translating the theory of change tree into projects’ goals, outcomes,
outputs and activities
Step 8: Concept note development
Understanding how a proposed design fit into GCF Project idea/concept
Steps to enhance the climate rationale of
GCF supported activities
