Vertical Integration in NAP
Processes
NAP Global Network Webinar
April 28, 2017

2. In the context of the NAP process,
vertical integration is:
The process of creating intentional
and strategic linkages between
national and sub-national
adaptation planning,
implementation and monitoring &
evaluation (M&E)
What is vertical
integration?

3. • UNFCCC decisions call for engagement
of sub-national actors
• Fundamental to key principles:
participation, transparency, gender
sensitivity, consideration of vulnerable
groups, communities and ecosystems
• Much of the implementation of
adaptation will occur at sub-national
levels
• Locally-driven approaches to adaptation
have been shown to be effective
Why vertical integration?

4. The process of vertical integration is:
• Iterative
• Unique to the country context
How vertical integration occurs depends on:
• Institutional structures for adaptation
• Progress on decentralization of sectoral
and development planning
• Capacity at national and sub-national
levels
The vertical integration
process

5. • Flexible, targeted
guidance for
strengthening
vertical integration
in NAP processes
• Complementary to

• Structured around
