Countries left the Bonn Climate Change Conference last week without an agreement on issues related to the global goal on adaptation. This stalemate was partly due to disagreement among countries over the next steps and the composition of a task force to improve the Belém Adaptation Indicators (BAIs), the 59 voluntary indicators adopted at the […]
On May 27 and 28, Saint Lucia’s Department of Sustainable Development (DSD) hosted a series of practical conversations on how to fund and implement Saint Lucia’s national priorities for adapting to climate change, guided by its 2018 National Adaptation Plan (NAP). The 2-day Adaptation Investment Pitch and Matchmaking Event brought together representatives from three priority […]
Indicators are an important part of monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems because they provide continuous and structured data that governments can use to track whether changes are occurring as a result of policies and actions. Indicators serve multiple functions in a national MEL system. They support accountability by providing evidence of progress to decision-makers and development partners. They enable learning by revealing […]
Country representatives, partners and funders will meet at the Finance Administrative Centre, in Castries for a dialogue focused on advancing financing for the countries’ national adaptation plan (NAP) implementation. During the two-day event, participants will review the progress of Saint Lucia’s NAP process and explore how adaptation priorities are being translated into investable projects and programmes. The sessions will also unpack three new sectors recently integrated into the country’s NAP process—Education, Tourism, and Infrastructure, and Spatial Planning, while highlighting how Saint Lucia is appraising, […]
The Climate Change Adaptation Secretariat is Israel’s coordination and monitoring body responsible for advancing the implementation of the National Strategy for Adaptation. Its mandate includes promoting, reviewing, and updating adaptation policies; coordinating national adaptation activities; publishing annual progress reports; and conducting and coordinating research on climate impacts. It promotes information sharing and strengthens science–policy linkages. […]
Monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems are essential to understanding whether national adaptation plan (NAP) processes work, how they work, and for whom, while offering insights to improve climate change adaptation actions. This course will equip climate change adaptation professionals with key methodologies, tools, and practical skills for implementing effective MEL systems for NAP processes. […]
The Asia-Pacific peer learning cohort event on monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems for national adaptation plan (NAP) processes took place from April 13-15, 2026 in Paro, Bhutan. Co-hosted by the Royal Government of Bhutan, the peer learning event brought together government representatives from Bhutan (host), Cambodia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Timor Leste, Tonga, and Vietnam. Building […]
As 2026 marks a critical year for climate reporting under the Paris Agreement, the regional peer learning event in Bhutan focuses on enhancing monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems for climate change adaptation to better inform global frameworks and communicate climate action. PARO, BHUTAN – From April 13 to 15, the Royal Government of Bhutan […]
Monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) systems are a core component of both the national adaptation plan (NAP) process and the NAP document. They are designed to assess whether adaptation strategies are achieving their intended outcomes, to understand how and for whom they are effective, and to inform adjustments based on evidence. Essentially, MEL systems generate insights on what works, what does not, and why, […]
