Rwanda - NAP Global Network

OUR PROGRAM

The NAP Global Network’s support for Rwanda’s NAP process started in March 2022 with the aim of assisting the Ministry of Environment in the operationalization of its monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) framework for adaptation. The program of work is helping to advance Rwanda’s NAP process by testing the adaptation component of the MEL framework for Rwanda’s updated NDC by monitoring progress on expected outputs and outcomes in the agriculture sector.

Rwanda has an integrated approach to adaptation, promoting climate-resilient national, social, and economic development with an emphasis on community- and ecosystem-based adaptation. Rwanda’s NAP process received USD 6 million from the Global Environment Facility in 2020 to strengthen the capacity of the government, private sector, and communities to plan, fund, implement, and monitor climate change adaptation across the country.
