The NAP Global Network prepared this analytical report to provide insights into and practical examples of progress reporting with the intent to encourage its adoption as an integral part of countries’ NAP processes. Based on a review of NAP progress reports, this report analyzes various methods countries use to track their adaptation progress and highlights important lessons and good practices.
Monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems are critical components of both the national adaptation plan (NAP) process and the NAP document. They are designed to assess whether adaptation strategies achieve their intended outcomes, understand how and for whom they are effective and inform necessary adjustments based on evidence. At the same time. MEL also supports accountability, institutional learning, and international reporting under […]

Not only is MEL a […]
Climate change drives ecosystem and biodiversity loss, while ecosystem degradation undermines efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Actions to protect and restore biodiversity and ecosystems, such as nature-based solutions (NbS) and ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA), can support climate adaptation and resilience. National adaptation plans (NAPs) offer a strategic framework for mainstreaming, mandating, and scaling […]
This session focused on showcasing the extent to which NbS and EbA have been taken up in countries’ NAP processes, based on the recent report published by the NAP Global Network Secretariat on tracking progress on NbS in NAP processes.
This synthesis report aims to assess the extent to which countries have integrated nature-based solutions (NbS) and ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) into their NAP documents.
The Ministry of Environment in Rwanda has implemented a climate adaptation monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) system to assess adaptation outcomes in the human settlement and transport sectors. This initiative aims to evaluate progress against Rwanda’s nationally determined contribution (NDC), with a focus on monitoring the resilience of infrastructure and communities to climate change impacts. […]
Rwanda’s Ministry of Environment (MoE) implemented its first work program from April 2022 to February 2023. The program focused on operationalizing a framework for monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) for climate change adaptation, with the agriculture sector serving as a pilot test, in line with Rwanda’s revised commitments under its nationally determined contribution (NDC). The […]
This webinar explored some common questions about the adaptation chapter of Biennial Transparency Reports (BTRs) and how countries can leverage the outputs and results of their National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes for their transparency reporting. The speakers also walk us through on how the new UAE Framework for Global Climate Resilience (the Global Goal on […]
