Peru’s Roadmap to Develop and Operationalize Its Monitoring and Evaluation System for Adaptation

Peru launched its first national adaptation plan (NAP) in 2021, which included five priority sectors—health, water, agriculture, fisheries and aquaculture, and forestry. In subsequent years, tourism and transport were added as priority sectors in Peru’s NAP process, expanding the total to seven sectors. These areas are critical due to their direct impact on Peru’s socio-economic stability and ecological balance. Peru’s NAP included 84 adaptation measures, each with associated indicators and goals to assess both the progress and the effectiveness of climate change adaptation.

This sNAPshot country brief explores how Peru is developing a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system to systematically track the progress and effectiveness of its climate change adaptation measures. It also outlines Peru’s reflections on what they have learned to enhance the country’s M&E system.
