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 will share findings from a recent report published by the NAP Global Network Secretariat on finance in NAP processes. During this session, we will share results of a review of 59 multi-sector NAP documents on how countries are addressing adaptation finance issues, highlighting good practices and areas for improvement for identifying, prioritizing, and mobilizing adaptation finance. 

This webinar will be held in English with simultaneous translation into French and Spanish.
