Monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems are essential to understanding whether national adaptation plan (NAP) processes work, how they work, and for whom, while offering insights to improve climate change adaptation actions.
This course will equip climate change adaptation professionals with key methodologies, tools, and practical skills for implementing effective MEL systems for NAP processes.
This free, self-paced course launches on April 1, 2025.
