Publication date: October 18, 2022

This Initial Adaptation Communication has been prepared to increase the visibility and profile of adaptation and to reflect progress on climate change mainstreaming pursuant to reducing the vulnerability of the country’s socio-economic sectors to the unprecedented impacts of climate change.

As the country finalises its National Adaptation Plan by the end of 2022, it is imperative that the Initial Adaptation Communication be used to set the pace for resource mobilisation for concrete adaptation interventions towards building resilience in a low carbon trajectory. Stakeholders should note that the implementation of the AdCom is in line with the national climate change policy framework and related strategies and plans.
