Webinar | Finance for National Adaptation Plan Processes: What can we learn from countries’ NAPs?

Financing is an important enabling factor for effective, inclusive NAP processes. Developing countries need access to sufficient finance throughout the NAP process from a diversity of sources and through mechanisms that do not exacerbate existing debt burdens.

This webinar shared findings from a recent report published by the NAP Global Network Secretariat on finance in NAP processes. In this session our panelists gave an overview of the key findings of a review of 59 multi-sector NAP documents on how countries are addressing adaptation finance issues. We also heard from Kenya’s NAP focal point, Thomas Lerenten Lelekoitien, who shared real-world examples for how Kenya is identifying, prioritizing, and mobilizing adaptation finance.
